    Thank you for this wonderful video. I've been a gardener all my life until I experienced severe health issues a couple year ago. I'm struggling now with mobility issues and many things I took for granted are no longer possible. I thought I would never garden again but now my lovely brother William is making me raised table height planters and bought me some boxes like you just used and we are going to follow your methods. We are both excited and very grateful to you for sharing your ideas. God bless you. Love Vera in Northern Ireland ❤

    Wonderful to hear a genuine accent, plus terms a novice gardener can understand. Thank you 👏👍😊

    you could use colored egg cartons for the holes then the same carton and put the seeds in each thing then gently tap the carton to shake the seeds until they just slide into each hole in the soil.

    I find a much easier way to sow my Carrot seeds is to buy pelleted Carrott seeds you can then sow at the correct spacing and no need to thin them out 👍🏻

    Brilliant ideas regarding the seed trays and the blue basket for spacing, had not thought of that. Off to get hubby in the loft to get one of those baskets down, he’s gonna love you lol. Thanks Ivan, stay safe x

    Get yourself a stepped drill bit, I find it the easiest way to make holes in pots, means just one drill bit for multiple sized holes

    I use the cardboard tubes from toilet/kitchen roll. Cut them into circular strips about 2cm, lay them onto the soil and drop 2/3 seeds into each.

  • @dn744
    @dn744 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    You could pop dowels into another wood pad like you have to level the soil. Then it would be easier once made. Save the pen 🖊, but I like how tidy that is.

    @stephencoe5161 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Simple but effective idea. For larger carrots I'm assuming you could use every second cell. Love the way you explain things & your infectious enthusiasm. Motivates me to get out into the garden. Thank you for sharing your love of gardening & passing on your knowledge.

    Me agai.
    I have just pulled up my shallots. I was wondering if i can use these as sets to plant next year. If so how do i store them, will they keep or is it best to buy new ones.
    These ideas for carrots by the way are fab. I will definitely be stealing this idea for my next sewing. Thank you so much
