Here's What I'm Planting This June In Our San Diego Garden | Zones 9 & 10

- It's already June, but there are SO MANY things that you can plant this time of year. Let's dive into it!
Here in zones 9 and 10, we can garden all year long. We really just have two long growing seasons: cool and warm. We're still in the first half of the warm season. That means we're mostly continuing what we've been doing for the last couple of months.
We've removed or added a few things here and there, but all of the warm season months are mostly the same.
This big thing for June is to continue succession planting. If you haven't started yet, that's okay too. Get on it! Most crops are ready to harvest anywhere between 45 and 90 days, so you might be already taking out some of your early crops if you started them in February or March. Time to bring in the replacements!
This is not a totally comprehensive list, but it should be plenty to get you going.
DIRECT SOW
With warmer soil and ambient temperatures, it can be easy to direct sow certain crops, especially those with larger seeds. This includes things like beans, corn, cucumbers, melons, squash, and pumpkins.
If you live in an area that doesn't get much or any rainfall this time of year, be sure to keep the soil moist!
TRANSPLANT OR SEED START
Eggplant, peppers, tomatillos, and tomatoes are all easier to start in seed trays. You can still start new seeds, or you can transplant seedlings out, whether you started them or bought them from a local nursery. Depending on your variety and how long it takes to reach harvest, you may be running short on time to start them from seed.
These all have smaller seeds and generally like warmer soil temps to germinate, so it's easier to start them in a controlled environment.
We have the last of our tomatoes in cells now, and we're going to transplant them out pretty soon here. That's because it gets really hot up in Ramona, so we don't want to be starting these outside in the middle of the summer.
FLOWERS
There are a TON of flowers you can start this time of year, so we've just listed some here. Some of my favorites are cosmos, dahlias, gaillardia, sage, and zinnias.
With all of this advice, it's general to zones 9 and 10. Heck this time of year, these recommendations apply to just about anywhere in the northern hemisphere. That said, I encourage you to break the rules a little bit.
Try planting some seeds at the recommended time, but maybe also try some before and after. You might just find out a better planting window for your micro-climate.

#gardening - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
June is when I clone my fall tomatoes here in NorCal 10a. Pruning and rooting cuttings off my current tomatoes gives me a jumpstart over growing them from seed. 💚
Yes, that's a GREAT way to do it. Already pruning, so might as well use those to start new plants!
Brijette your calendar is amazing! I buy one for me, and one for my daughter every year. Your calendar keeps me organized. Cannot believe how much you squeeze in to it. And then there’s the coupons.❤
Appreciate you!
FOMO😂😂 that's me! But then I get a grip, plant and move on. I think it's too late for me to change my procrastinating ways.
Thanks for emphasizing flowers, I'm trying to up my game this year
2:39 gotta call out the punkins 😊
I love everything about this company ❤
Appreciate you!
Thanks for great info. My garden is going crazy. 😊
Love this time of year when everything explodes!
Ha, thanks for the chuckle over here in Houston, TX
Oh my gosh I am embarrassed I’ve never looked towards the back of the calendar and had no idea that chart was there! Gonna go have to take a gander now 😂
It just keeps getting better!
What an amazing video!! I live in Las Vegas and your calendar is spot on when it comes to planning out my garden thanks for sharing your experience with us 😯🙂🪴
I have to buy next year's calendar 😅
Thank you for mentioning SD's microclimates, we're 50-60f in the morning and 10 miles away it's 75f at the same time
Great info, love this channel!!
Love to have you here!
😂😂🥹🥹 Texas harsh weather here
Thankyou 92058
At this rate we should have a separate zone for Texas, the weather here is... something else
And how there's a heat dome?!?
Yes!! I'm in SETX and it's wild
could you please make a video about making your greenhouse into a drying place? That was super interesting! Thank you
Yes!
love the cat photo-bombing!
Thank you!!!!!!!
❤🙃 love the calendar
following from Portugal! where the climate is similar to San Diego.Super useful to follow you and se what we can plant each month!
Yes, very similar!
Me too!
9b central valley, nothing but 90s for 2 weeks now, going into triple digits after Tuesday. We may be the same zone but our summers are not the same. Everything goes into survival mode in June through August and generally speaking pollen becomes non viable when temperatures remain above 90 for multiple days.
Thank you so much for the info. Well here in the Imperial Valley it is averaging 102 to 106 degrees so shade is definitely up.
I understand what secession planting is. But I grow your typical tomato’s, peppers, cucumbers, zucchini, okra, squash almost all the way to July/ August where the duds and zucchini die off. And then I’ll plant something heat tolerant. I’m in zone 9B, But my other plants just until I plant for winter time. Please let me know if I’m doing something wrong in your opinion. Thank you and great video
@samanthawhang7498I had some tomatoes that i grew last spring the grew all summer and fall the looked like they were going to die in the winter got some frost damage, but in late winter early spring the started to thrive again, they just wouldn’t die 😂 It was in a inconvenient spot of my garden because it was right in the walkway at the entrance of the garden 😂 i ended up pulling it because i still have so many tomatoes in the freezer from this plant
Good video. I like seeing it. Good to be friends with you. Hope you always have a happy day.
I have been WAITING for this video.
Have you considered a digital calendar? Sucks so bad that the calendar is sold out sad😢 and a digital version would allow purchase until the next version is available.

What is the beautiful flowering shrub behind you?
Bridgette
Are those Black Eyed Susan flowers in back of you?
You’ve talked a lot about succession planting. How do you know when a plant is ready to get pulled out? Or when it’s done giving fruit? Is it when it’s dying? I’m a new gardener so I’ve never succession planted but would like to.
It depends on the plant. Herbs will go to flower, and the taste will often change. Something like a determinate tomato will give all at once, but an indeterminate (or squash, peppers, etc.) will continue to produce over time, so it's your call on when the plant either no longer looks healthy or stops producing.
I am growing Armenian cucumbers in container and they were yellow and dying off before opening so I used bone meal and they have started growing a lot. Do I keep using this fertilizer and how often ? Or add in another too ? Your videos and calendars inspired me to start gardening 😊
Texas... Or Fresno 😭🔥
Same same haha
How do I sign up to be notified when the 2025 calendars are ready to order? Thank you!
Dahlias- how much water should I give them on drip? Also when it gets hot and dry out? It is dry here.
I read that they need 60 minutes of drip watering 3 times a week. I live in Southern California, zone 10. That’s a LOT of water!! How can I be smart about watering?
