June is one of the best months for direct sowing in Canada because the soil is warmer and frost risk is usually finished in most regions. In colder areas, early June may still be cool, so tender crops should be planted only after nights are consistently warm. June is a warm and productive month for sowing seeds in Canada. Direct sow beans, cucumbers, zucchini, squash, corn, carrots, beets, radish, lettuce, kale, Swiss chard, basil, dill, sunflowers, zinnias, cosmos, marigolds, and nasturtiums. Plant pepper transplants outdoors after frost risk has passed, but avoid starting pepper seeds outdoors unless growing in containers, a greenhouse, or for overwintering.
