Four years ago, while watching your videos, cherished ideas about a small garden began to sprout in me. That passion grew steadily, motivating me to make it a reality. Now, after much effort, my family has bravely bid farewell to the noisy city life and embraced the peace of the countryside. We are diligently cultivating our land, transforming it into a vibrant garden filled with lush, green vegetable beds. My sincerest thanks to you for sparking this dream with your inspiring videos. I continue to be a devoted viewer, constantly seeking new knowledge to make my garden flourish. Wishing you continued success in inspiring even more people!

If you lay toilet paper in the row and sow the seeds on top of that, they will germinate much more successfully. Also, mixing the seed with sand will help you to spread the seeds out a little more, so you don’t have to thin as much.

A technique I learned for planting carrots was, to take a plain white paper towel and dampen it. Now place the seeds on the towel (which makes it so much easier to see as well as space them apart) and plant paper towel, seeds and all. Works great.

Great Planting method. Less thinning. The PLATING Method : Learned from an African grower that cannot waste seeds. She uses a Ceramic dinner plate. Non windy day. Put about 25 seeds on plate and slowly as you move across the furrow move 1 seed for every 3 or 4 inches off the edge of the Plate. Works like a charm and you get x3 more rows of carrots.

What's your Favorite Carrot to grow? Zone and species? 7a TN we do Scarlet Nantes. 6 to 7 hours of full sun and 4 hours of partial sun Medium size good for grow bags, Raised beds and likes the heat we have here. My first carrot was Parisian ( tiny round carrots.. quick grow but, not much meat on them. Good to learn with.) Due to Rocky clay soil we are super limited on choices of produce. Central TN yellow clay grew basil, squash and cucumbers easy. Everything else struggled or stunted out. Apple trees do well, blueberries, blackberries but we had issues with Figs dying to frost and peach trees infected by peach borers.

I’ve tried the cooled down starch slurry method (mix in carrot seeds, pipe them out in rows, the slurry keeps them spaced), and mixing with sand method. I sorta just do a pinch and sprinkle method now because I have small, precise hands and I tend not to overseed. I also sow them a little deeper and try to mulch with clipped grass and crumpled dead leaves to help with the soil moisture. And because I’m in a cold and very windy climate I cover with old storm windows. It all helps retain moisture and germination rates. The best seed packet I used was a rainbow mix from Dollar Seed company. I have Danvers and something else from Rare Seeds and they didn’t germinate or grow as well as the variety pack, and I like the really pale ones, they’re the sweetest.

@TheWickerShireProject Ай бұрын

@@gh_007 The rule is: If they dry they die ( in early stage of germination.) Once you have a small tiny tap root its good. I like the grass clippings and leaves for moisture. Eventually it will break down and feed the soil microbes and then feeds the plants. We wiped out and entire grow area using straw from the box stores. Grazon herbicide is just evi!

Carrots are one vegetable that always gave me fits. I reached the point i told my brother, if they dont grow this year then I'm done. He talked to a friend whose dad had a carrot farm and sure enough it was a soil issue. I just couldn't get the soil loose enough. I moved to a raised bed and I have successfully raised 3 crops of carrots now.

It’s not just size but also weather. It gets too hot for carrots in the South by mid June so they have to get pulled by then. Unless you only grow them in the fall.

You can try growing them between corn "curtains", sown either in rows (about 6 feet apart) or squares (approximately 10 by 10 feet), these provide shade and also act as a windbreak, slowing down surface evaporation.

@plantflowers1196 Ай бұрын

Honestly the cornstarch gel method is my tried and true. As long as you don’t add too many carrot seeds you don’t even have to thin them! Helps with good germination too because the corn starch holds moisture better than soil alone.

Another use for carrot tops: Carrot Top Tea! Wash the tops really well, pick out any dried/yellow parts and discard. Drain and lay out in an even layer (no thicker than 1/2-1 inch) on a wide basket. Dry in a well ventilated area, turning and flipping the stems and leaves gently every other day or so. When fully dry (anywhere from 1-3 weeks) cut the carrot tops into 1.5-2 inch pieces with some clean kitchen sheets. Then lightly toast in a dry pan, stir constantly so none of it burns. If you have a lot, toast in batches. They’ll turn light brown but don’t let it get dark or burn black. Store in clean dry jars. Brew maybe 2-4 Tbsp of dried carrot tops for every 2-3 cups of boiling water. Can re-steep. I use a metal mesh tea strainer thing so it’s easy to just lift out of the hot tea when I’m read to sip. It has a roast carrot flavor. I like it in the winters when I want something hot to drink, but no caffeine and no sweetness.

@connecticutwormsgardens Ай бұрын

@SWiseman if your carrots are gnarly and bent, it has nothing to do with thinning. Gnarly bent carrots occur from soil that is too hard. As the young roots try to push through the hard soil, they can't and end up bending and becoming deformed. Loosen your soil and if necessary add in some perlite or vermiculite or coco coir so it stays soft. Overcrowded carrots from not thinning will be skinny, but not bent.

Don't forget Atomic Red carrots! I sowed carrot seeds the other day. Red Atomic, Danvers, Nantes, and Imperator. They're under a board at the moment. I really enjoyed this video so much that this is the 3rd time watching it! I tried a method that most people will probably shake their heads at. I decided to make seed papers. (Hey, I had insomnia, so I put it to use) Take a piece of paper towel, split it so it's single tissue. Spread dots of washable glue (little kid's glue) and use a toothpick dipped in water to put a seed or 2 on each glue dot. Let it dry. When you plant it, the glue will dissolve.

Hey Kevin, if anyone in the epic family has enough experience with it, could we one day get a video dedicated to "growing in the shade", whilst explaining how it works, like when they say part shade or full shade with strong ambient light or growing in a sunny window. I'm always confused with what my shady or fully shaded/no direct light spots are considered as and what would be considered good ambient or filtered light, and honestly just what it all means in general lol. Carrots reminded me cause last season I grew them in a spot not knowing as winter came it would drastically less sun in the day in about half the bed, but even with like maybe 3 hours direct light per day once winter was here they grew basically just as well as the rest did. Thanks!

I started making seed mats out of a paper towel (the square folded ones) and for the "glue" a bit of flour and water. Once they're opened up they're a perfect fit for square foot gardening. I put seeds on it every couple inches. Then when I plant I just lay down the paper towel, very lightly cover with soil and water in. Perfect carrots, nice and big and I don't really need to thin. Cheaper than pelleted but a little tedious up front.

When I pulled them up, I thought that I actually hadn't done too badly. Sure, I'd completely forgotten to harvest them so they'd been in the ground all year and through the winter, and it looked like they'd died at some point so they were mushy and rotting, but the taproots were straight and their size wasn't too terribly bad (I have low standards for first attempts, lol). So I'm trying again this year, and it's good to have some advice! I'm going to try to remember them this year!
