You’ve inspired me to plant again… the slugs have consumed every single carrot that germinated… depressing. I will just have to be more diligent in killing them. Slugs are about the only pest I do war with. I go out after dark and water slug prone plants with a solution of one part household cleaning ammonia with ten parts water. It kills slugs on contact and the ammonia is actually a nitrogenous fertilizer… not the perfect nitrogen fo carrots, but at least it’s not toxic. I don’t rinse the plants and have never lost one from chemical burning. I also use it on my beans and brassicas. On a separate note, for years I lost a huge percentage of my carrots to skinny little maggots. Then I discovered that if I plant about three rows carrots to one row of leeks, I no longer have this problem .

@LiveOnWhatYouGrow Жыл бұрын

That would probably be perfect for this method because the leek roots are at a different level than those of the carrots. Just plant a few leeks in the mulch row. Thanks Garth

@garthwunsch Жыл бұрын

@@LiveOnWhatYouGrow and on yet another note, I have a useful method for planting my leeks. I use a 1“ x 9“ wood auger bit in my battery drill to get nice deep holes into the soil without compacting the adjacent soil as a dibbler does. Drop the leaks into the hole, but do not backfill with soil. Once planted I water each hole, which washes a little soil down around the roots and prevents any air pockets as might easily happen if one tries to backfill with soil. After a few waterings, the hole is completely filled. This year I am also adding a 3 inch box frame around each row of leeks, which will extend the blanched portion to almost 12 inches long.

G'day from Australia Garth. A more "natural" way in controlling slug predation is to sprinkle some breakfast oats around your seedlings. The slugs are attracted to eat them and after ingestion the oats expand, causing a terminal result to the slugs! Don't apply a lot, as you may attract other unwanted visitors to your food bed.... just enough each time for the volume of slugs you have. Good luck! 😊🍀

Why do you add the rows of mulch? Will you spread it over the carrots once they begin growing? I did this in my carrot bed as your video instructs and I think the robbins are spreading my mulch everywhere because every day I have to straighten it out again. Hopefully I get some sprouts !

@LiveOnWhatYouGrow 3 ай бұрын

I don't have robins, but my cat does the same thing. That's why I put netting over the bed! Once they're sprouted the mulch gets moved around by the rain and wind, etc.

@CinnamonBear-xv4eq 3 ай бұрын

I’ll look into doing that, it’s probably good to do that on the cabbage too, to prevent those pesky green caterpillars!
