In this video you will learn my tricky way to plant carrots in spring! Planting carrots is carried out in the spring in early April! Planting carrots is better, as I show in the video SOWING CARROTS WITHOUT THINING AND WEEDING THE SECRET OF WISE GARDENERS because in such a cunning way you will reduce the consumption of carrot seeds and make your carrot bed even! Before planting carrots in the spring, be sure to spill the bed with water and let it soak in, so the carrot seeds are saturated with moisture and germinate quickly! a tricky way to plant carrots that you will learn by watching this video will help you reduce the time for planting carrots, and in spring time is very precious to us because there are a lot of things to do!

Thank you, this trick actually works for so many other plants and avoids transplant shock. You just have to space them appropriately when seeding in the carton.
You are welcome.
When hunting many years ago, it was tinted and there had been heavy snow but now melted, we came upon carrots that had been frozen. They were the sweetest carrots I had ever eaten!
Winter not
Tinted
After reading some of the negative comments.
I think this guy is into something. I'm going to try this in my raised beds with square foot planting.
I live in a semi- arid temperate continental climate zone. This will solve many of my issues with dessication.
I have never had luck with carrots but I'm going to try this right now! Thanks.
No thinning means you don't attract pests that can destroy your carrot crop. Starting early lets you plant carrot trays as a catch crop. With little soil exposed, there is virtually no weeding. Using this method along with drip irrigation makes carrots extremely low maintenance. Its not needed, but it helps maximize efficiency. Love it!
Oh, this is the first time I've seen how to grow carrots like this. We usually sow the seeds directly into the ground and have to prune them a lot when they grow into seedlings. With this method, you've saved nearly half of the seeds you used to sow the old way, which is amazing!
By pelleted seeds instead of wasting all the time he does
@@davemartini4391 pelleted seeds are far more expensive. Time is a free resource when used wisely.
That’s genius! I struggled planting carrots and I’ve been trying every year. I am going to try this method and see if this works for me. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤
You are welcome. And thank you.
I love carrots and am so excited about trying this approach for the first time this year. Spring and gardening time can't get here soon enough for me to grow 3-4 different varieties of egg-tray carrots! 🥕🌄🥕
This is pretty smart, and you could transfer the egg carts to whatever bed works for you , and in many places that would be a raised bed. I'm starting to really like the channel.
thank you
Agree thinning needs to be upgraded and improved.
I'm planning a thinning tool also.
I'm trying this egg cartons trick
Thanks
Really like the spacing the Carton makes. Thank you. Stay growing
You are welcome. And thank you.
This works in a pot if you cut the carton to help. I just tried after watching your video. And thank you I never thought of soaking the seeds for carrots.
Do you know how the cardboard for the egg trays are made? Unfortunately most cardboard is made with wetting agents that contain forever chemicals. I taught cardboard was going to be my sliver bullet until I looked into it a bit more.
What a great idea and to grow the carrots without having to thin them all out which affects the growth of the carrots. I shall be watching more of your videos. 😊
Thank you.
Pure genius. You just changed my life for the better forever eternity.
What a great idea, ive seen them used as seed trays but not to use in the garden itself.
Wow, thank you for a great idea. I'm gonna do that for my beats too following a little bit of adjustment
thankyou for sharing your knowledge!!!!!
That's so cool!! I just need to get my hands on more egg cartons!
Or eat more eggs😄
@@RS-gl9ht We have chickens so don't buy eggs unless we need a bunch at one time for something. But, my husband said we have some cartons in the garage so I'm a happy camper!
Muy buena idea gracias❤
2 each it’s own I luv the way u grow ur carrots well done,,,,Gardening is hard work,,,and I can see u really enjoy gardening,,,,Bravo,,,
Merci beaucoup. Excellente idée !🍀
I skipped the first part, just put soil in my egg cartons, couple seeds in each space with very slight dirt on top, pressed firm. Then to a shallow plastic container big enough for the carton to fit. some water in the plastic container with plastic wrap as you did it. Carton absorbs the water, keep it moist till the seeds sprout. April 4th, carrots will have to wait to go out, 5 inches of snow today. Thanks for the video.
Would this work for other root vegetables, like beets? I may give it a try 😊. Thank you for sharing!
@@michaelgrant6217 It does for me. I use a 18 egg carton, skip every other cell due to the size of the beets at harvest, so I got 9 beets per carton.
Much better solution; thank you! I tried his way and it was nigh on impossible to take the germinated seed off the damp tissue. I'm sure I left the root behind on several of the carrots I tried to pry off the tissue. I ended up just planting the tissue in the garden to thin out after planting only two egg cartons.
This also works well with staggering your planting. plant two trays, then a week later plant two more, then another two and so on.
I’ve read that carrots that are replanted curl while growing. It seems here that that’s only if they are transferred later than those tiny sprouts. I’ve actually loved them when they’re curly.
Great method! Thanks for your ingenuity and generosity!
Boa You are 100% correct about transplanting carrots, I have never and will not do it.
If you go to my channel and see how I sow carrots and it is not very often I have to thin them out.
How to get the carrot seeds?
@@user-eo3dk6em3y , I order them from Burpee or Gurney’s seed companies here in the US. I got heirloom seeds and then let on or two go to seed and use those for the next year.
Yup!! Super Cool!! I'm on it!! Thank You!!
I’m doing this right now as we speak. I saved your video to look back on later. I’ve never had luck with carrots but I’m excited to try this.
Same here 👍
Mine germinated in 6 days!
Yep, I’m doing that this year. Such a great idea, and so easy.
You are welcome
That's brilliant! You just made my day!
Hi Great. I just suggest the following when poking holes to pant the seeds, it is much simpler to just put another carton on top and push it down slightly, all the holes will be the same depth and in the centre of the planting carton.
I really like this idea. I'm trying different things this year, so will definitely try this one, thanks!
That is a very creative idea. Thank you for sharing . My achy back and patience thank you, as well!
That’s fantastic! I never would’ve thought of that. Thank you for sharing 😊
you're welcome
This is brilliant! Thank you.
That is a great way to sow and grow carrots. I am going to do that. Thanks for sharing.
This egg carton method is a great idea .... thanks a lot .... it makes gardening pleasurable now. ❤❤
You are welcome
Thank you! I will try this!
Oh, that's clever. That would be nice for succession seeding, too. And it would make planting parsnips so much easier, since they take forever to sprout.
Thanks for sharing. This is the best video on TH-cam as regards the planting of carrots at home. Thank you Sir . Greetings from Cameroon
You are welcome. Greetings from Ukraine.
Waaaw your doing all this wonderful gardening from Ukraine Bro.
It's a great source of inspiration to me honestly. Thanks
I'm doing lemongrass essential oil and other essential oils too
Thats the best idea ive seen in a long time, going to try this year 😊 😊
absolutely brilliant
This is soooo amazing. You a my HERO. Thank you for such a magnificent idea. You are a great teacher!!! 🙌🙌💯
Por fin encuentro una excelente idea para sembrar zanahorias sin tener que arrancar plantitas, Dios te bendiga siempre y gracias por compartir este maravilloso vídeo.
De nada, y gracias por sus amables palabras.
Rien à dire ! C'est complètement génial !
The one thing I have struggled with in my garden is growing carrots😆 This year new idea, with your help>>thank you!
Buy pelleted seeds if faster and easier
I have a seed tray with 6 rows of 12, one inch pots a little bigger than a thimble. I just press it into the soil, drop a seed in each hole cover them up and done! Perfect spacing every time. No need to make things harder than they need to be.
And then transplant? I can't picture what you are using.
@@carolb5677 No transplant. I press the bottom of the seed starter tray directly into the ground then remove it. It leaves 48 little holes in the ground that are evenly spaced apart. I then drop a seed into each hole and cover them with soil. I used to lay a piece of peg board on the ground and use a small dowel to poke each hole and then drop the seed but this gives you the same result and is much faster. If you want them further apart use every second hole. IE for beets.
@@asquithmainlines699 Great! Thanks so much.
That's a very interesting method. The egg trays really serve a dual purpose as both planting tray and mulch/weed barrier all in one. Thanks for making the video! The spacing is very similar to what you use with the Square Foot Gardening method. The close spacing alone does a lot to prevent weeds but you've added the additional benefit of a weed barrier. The question that came to my mind is where do you find that type of egg tray? That many trays would be a 10 year supply of eggs for most of us! 😀
Those are the “carton” for eggs at big box stores like Costco or Sam’s Club. Might be at other places those are just what I am aware of.
@@carolstrickland6979 Thanks! I've never shopped for eggs at Sam's club so I didn't know that. I'll have to take a look the next time I'm there. (It still seems like a LOT of eggs though!)
Many restaurants buy their eggs this way too. A regular diner will go through many flats just serving breakfast.
Sams club or Walmart when you buy eggs by the case. Or you might approach a smaller restaurant to see if they have then. P
I have a baking business. I buy eggs by the case from Sams.....I've been throwing them away. Can you SEE my sad face???.
Can’t wait to try this method. Thank you❤
You are welcome
Thank you so much. I will try to do the same thing
Too much work. Looks like a solution for nonexisting problem.
The usual for TH-cam garden tips, they're not really tips but pit falls.
Thanks for the wonderful tip!
Beautiful and tasty. Thank you AMAZING GARDEN!
Fantástico. Gracias
Thank You
Gratidão por compartilhar sua idéia neste vídeo. Vou fazer
Thank you for sharing, must try this 😊
Amazing! Thank you!
That is a very good gardening tip, I will give that a go this year.
I had a lot of trouble with carrot fly last year so I will also keep the plants covered with a net.
Make a fence around your carrots about a foot high. Using canes and a fine mesh, that should cure the fly. A raised bed also works well
Když mezi mrkev zasadíte cibuli, ta odpudí mrkvovou mušku a naopak mrkev odpudí cibulovou mušku.
@@ScottMason-ss8wwYeah and also use rows of unions, they protect each other from insects.
Beautiful job! Thank you sharing!
you're welcome
Seems like a great idea, I think I will try it! Thank you.
Thank you for your reply 🙏
Total genius!
Thanks...going to try this method this Summer
I’m trying this now!
I love this idea!
Use Pelleted Carrot Seeds. I have been successfully using Pelleted Carrot, Beet and Lettuce seeds from Johnny's Seeds the last few years.
Great idea. Very innovative. Thanks for the tip. Excellent video. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You are welcome
Thank you
❤❤❤ thank you brilliant❤❤
This is such a wonderful idea. I'm definitely going to try this method 😀
This looks super easy! What other vegetable and flower seeds can be sown this way?
thank you, this was very interesting and I'm happy that I learned something from watching it.
I have been gardening for over 40 years and have always been told that you never transplant carrots / parsnips.
At the end of the video you put a picture up of harvested carrots, how do we know these are the same carrots without seeing you harvest them.
I had the prettiest green tops on my first ever growing in 5 gal buckets one year. Then, they just were little bitty, not even fingerling size. Such a disappointment. I left them outside for the critters. But I plan to do this....every step... I'm so in awe of this GENIUS method!
Thank you, love from Ireland
You are welcome
You, Sir, are a genius.
Wonderful thank you.
Wow... that is so genius!!! Thank you!!! Maybe I'll actually get some carrots now... lol.
Not genius, its a waste of effort, buy pelleted seeds its way faster and easier
This is really a neat idea, thank you.
Perfecto este método no lo conocía voy a probarlo, pero primero tengo que garvillar la tierra tengo muchas piedras, te sigo desde Valencia-España.😄
super je vais pratiquer cette methode merci beaucoup bonne journée
Wow great idea!! Thank you!!
ok, but I wonder how they grow without loose soil underneath and how is pulling them up going to be later. I'd like to see a video showing the whole process, including harvest...
His planting bed preparation was horrible. I’ll try a carton or two as an experiment but I too wish he had shown the end result.
Brilliant idea 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Wow.. very good idea ! Thanks a lot!!!
Thank you!
you're welcome
Thank you for posting this - I'm definitely going to try it. I've been terrible at thinning my carrots 😄
You are welcome
Can't wait to try thank you! Much success to you and you plant family as well
Excellent 😃 Thank you very much for sharing this method 🙏 Very well thought out..
You are welcome
@@amazinggarden definitely gonna be trying soon 😁
Thank You so much for essential information
You are welcome
Super method!
I can sow hundreds of carrot seeds and only get two or three spindly things because the slugs and voles get them when they germinate. I was just looking at my egg cartons today thinking if I could maybe use them to give the carrots a head start. It's worth a try!
Exelente idea
I love it. efficient and neat. Can I germinate beet seeds using this process?
such a clever combination between paper stripes & egg tray method avoids weeding for a while !
For the whole season, because the tops grow thick and weeds do not have enough sunlight to germinate
Looking good 👍🏻
Thank you! ❤
You are welcome
Genius - doing right now - wondering how about for fatter root veggies - just use every other egg carton cup??? Thanks so much for this video!
Ingenious!
Great idea!👍🏼
Thats a great idea I WILL TRY THAT, WOULD THA WORK FOR PARSNIPS AS WELL
بسیار عالی واموزنده
thank you very much for sharing this realy great idea!
You are welcome.
