July is mid summer for you but I don't know what that means for
temperatures.
You could be having "hot" days of 40F (5C) for all I know.  What is your
typical nightly minimum and daily maximum at the moment?  Will you get
frost,
if so when will the first frost probably be?

Supplementary question: does the UK have maps available of growing zones
(heat
zones, cold zones, growing days etc) similar to the USA and Australia?
