Your Sublette County, Wyoming garden is entering a new phase. Here's what's on the schedule for June and why each task matters now.

  1. Move kale, lettuce, and ageratum from tray to bed

    Pinch off the lowest leaves on each seedling before you plant — it reduces water loss while the roots catch up.

  2. Put basil, carrots, and kale seeds straight in the ground

    Rake a smooth bed, make a shallow furrow, drop seeds at the spacing on the packet, water gently, walk away.

  3. Collect microgreens at their peak

    Morning harvests are best — cooler temperatures mean crisper produce and longer fridge life.

  4. Get carrots, kale, and lettuce in for a late-season harvest

    Fall crops get sweeter with a light frost. Don't be afraid of cool nights.

Get ahead of July
  • Transplants going out: basil, cucumber, and peppers
  • Direct-sowing: cucumber, green beans, and peppers

Monthly Watering Calendar for Sublette County

When you'll need to water your garden — based on average monthly rainfall vs. the ~1 inch/week most gardens need.

What this means for you: The 1-inch-per-week rule applies to most vegetable crops. Sublette County averages 23" a year — divide by 52 and compare to that 1" target. Some months are above, some below; that's where the calendar earns its keep.

Frost Risk Probability

Based on 31 years of NOAA weather station data from 3 stations

Too early frost risk Safe to Plant Jun 22 → Aug 24 63 frost-free days Protect crops frost returns Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Safe: Jun 30 Protect by: Sep 16

Beginners: Plant frost-sensitive crops (tomatoes, peppers, squash) after the "Safe" date on the left. Harvest or cover them before the "Protect by" date on the right. Hardy crops (lettuce, peas, kale) can go in the yellow transition zones.

How to read this table: "Conservative" means you're safe from frost 9 out of 10 years — best for beginners and frost-sensitive crops. "Average year" is the typical date. "Aggressive" means only 1 in 10 years is that warm — experienced gardeners with frost protection can try these dates.

Sunlight & Day Length in Sublette County

Monthly daylight hours and peak sun — critical for onion varieties, photoperiod-sensitive plants, and solar garden planning.

For new gardeners: You can't change the sun. Picking the right day-length-matched varieties for Sublette County matters more than any other "fix" you make — and the seed packet tells you (look for "long-day," "short-day," "day-neutral").

Longest Day

Shortest Day

Peak Sun Hours

10.8 hr/day peak (summer)

Peak sun hours (green dashed line below) account for cloud cover — this is the usable direct sunlight your garden actually receives. Most vegetables need 6+ peak sun hours.

Daylight hours (sunrise to sunset) Peak sun hours (direct sunlight after cloud cover) ▪ Gold zone = long day (14+ hr) ▪ Blue zone = short day (<12 hr)

Onion tip: Your long summer days (14+ hours) support long-day onion varieties like Walla Walla, Sweet Spanish, and Ailsa Craig.

Soil Temperature & Composting in Sublette County

Monthly soil temps tell you when to plant warm-season crops, and when your compost pile is actively working.

What this means for you: Air temperature lies. Your air can be 70°F in April but the soil 4 inches down is still 50°F — too cold for tomatoes or peppers to root properly. Sublette County's soil temperature curve tells you the real planting window. A $5 soil thermometer pays for itself in one season.

Plant Warm Crops When

Soil reaches 60°F+

Soil rarely reaches 60°F — use black plastic mulch to warm soil.

Best Month to Compost

Cover Crops for Sublette County

Cover crops protect bare soil, fix nitrogen, suppress weeds, and improve soil structure — with planting dates calibrated for your area.

Why it matters: Why not just leave bare soil? Weed seeds, erosion, nutrient leaching, and crust formation. A cover crop solves all of these for the cost of seeds and one mowing.

Spring Cover Crops (2 options) — Build soil before the main growing season
Crop Plant By Terminate N-Fixing Soil Benefit
Buckwheat Jun 28 Jun 15 Rapid growth, attracts pollinators, suppresses weeds
White clover May 22 Jun 22 ✓ Yes Living mulch, fixes nitrogen, permanent ground cover
Summer Cover Crops (1 options) — Fill gaps and suppress weeds between plantings
Crop Plant By Terminate N-Fixing Soil Benefit
Sunflowers Jul 4 Aug 10 Deep roots break compaction, attract pollinators and beneficial insects
Fall Cover Crops (3 options) — Plant after harvest to protect soil over winter
Crop Plant By Terminate N-Fixing Soil Benefit
Oats Jul 15 Jun 8 Quick biomass, winterkills in cold zones — no spring tillage needed
Winter rye Jun 4 Jun 1 Suppresses weeds, prevents erosion, breaks up compacted soil
Winter wheat May 15 Jun 8 Erosion control, weed suppression, good biomass

Wind & Microclimate in Sublette County

Why this matters: Wind affects three things gardeners forget: how fast soil dries (more wind = more watering), whether pollinators can work (calm beats gusty), and whether your trellised crops stay upright. Sublette County sees 10.6 mph on average — a forgiving baseline.

Wind dries soil, stresses plants, and affects frost patterns. Understanding your exposure helps with garden placement.

Seasonal Wind Speed

Spring: 16 mph   Summer: 11 mph

Fall: 13 mph   Winter: 14 mph

Prevailing wind: W. Windy area — plant a windbreak hedge on the W side of your garden.

Windbreak Benefit

7.2/10

Strongly recommended — a windbreak (fence, hedge, or row of tall crops like corn or sunflowers) will significantly improve garden yields.

Frost Pocket Risk

High

Hilly terrain with 1,779 ft of elevation range — cold air pools in low spots. Avoid planting frost-sensitive crops in valleys.

Rainwater Harvesting in Sublette County

How much water you can collect, when to collect it, and what size system you need for your garden.

The practical takeaway: A gravity-fed rain barrel ($75) is the easy entry. A larger cistern ($500-1500) covers a whole growing season. Sublette County's 23" annual rainfall determines whether the larger system is overkill or essential.

Annual Collection

11,363 gal

Per 1,000 sq ft of roof area (at 80% collection efficiency)

Recommended Setup

7 rain barrels (55 gal each)

For a typical 500 sq ft garden. Serious collectors: consider a 1,750 gal tank.

Legal Status

Unrestricted

Rainwater harvesting is fully legal in your state with no restrictions.

Best Collection Months

Mar, Apr, May, Jul

Highest rainfall months — your barrels will fill up quickly during these months.

Months to Draw From Storage

Jun, Nov, Dec

Dry months when you'll rely on stored water — size your storage for this gap.

Rainwater collection tips for your area
  • Your county receives approximately 22.8 inches of rain per year
  • A 1,000 sq ft roof can collect roughly 11,363 gallons annually
  • Rainwater harvesting is fully legal in your state
  • Stock up on stored water before your dry season (Jun, Nov, Dec)
  • Use a first-flush diverter to keep roof debris out of your collection
