Thanks brother, this is a rather unusual technique but after 2 years of frustrating failures I'll try just about anything and your logic sounds quite reasonable.
Try it and let me know if it work, if you plant on berms, make the top flat and then use cardboard with bricks. Hopefully you will be carrot rich this spring!!
@@DaisyCreekFarms Yep, that's the plan. I'll also try a "micro-greenhouse" cover (foil stretched over a wooden frame) in a separate spot, as last time I got a good carrot harvest I remember that it was a warmer than usual spring around here.
Thank you!! My carrots failed when I tried for the first time last year. I’m trying again! Can you give more info on your stone garden bed? So beautiful and I want to make the same
Thanks for such amazing info. I really enjoy watching your videos and you really encourage people to be enthusiastic to grow veggies with your position outlook and smiley face. Keep up the great work. Warm greetings from Canada
Jag, your videos are the best. I have a question re soil for root vegetables: I am in zone 9 (Europe) and my soil is high in clay - no matter how I dig, a drop of rain makes the soil compact, and this means root vegetables are a no-go and also affects the growth rate of all other vegetables. Is there any amount of compost realistically able to improve the soil composition? Are raised beds with externally purchased soil the only viable option here? Thanks so much and stay safe.
Digging soil makes more weeds because you bring fresh seeds to the surface. Check out Charles Dowding no dig garden videos. Digging destroys the soil biology… that’s what feeds the plants, not fertilizer. Soil biology requires a living root in the ground as much as possible, and mulch 100% of the time. These things will make “loose” soil. I haven’t dug or tilled my garden for thirteen years. The only “digging” I do is to aerate the soil with a broadfork, and that is only for carrots.
Never use Roundup or pre-emergent herbicide on the soil. Even if it was last year. Roundup binds to the soil until lime is used to help unbind and wash roundup away.
This is timely. My carrots germinate, but they don't form. I've tried raised beds and containers. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I'm going to try again.

Fantastic info! I love how you keep these simple and basic but always include the “why” with every step of the process. Love your channel.

This video answered every question that I had about sowing by my carrot 🥕 seeds :)
What variety of carrots were you harvesting in this video? I love the videos they truly help me with my gardening journey!
I’m so excited to grow some carrots 🥕 Thank you so much for the tips.
🥕🥕🥕 I agree, I've had pack of the carrots but I always FAIL so I've hesitated to plant them... until now, Jag gives a cardboard-and-coir hint!!
Thanks for sharing ❣️
Thanks for the right time to plant them. I always tried in the summer!
Me too! I seem to have a brain block thinking everything likes the heat. 🙄
Thank you so so very much. I have never been able to grow carrots and now I know why
Great information!! Thanks
I bless you brother.. you have inspired me to grow for the first time
Thank you!! My carrots failed when I tried for the first time last year. I’m trying again! Can you give more info on your stone garden bed? So beautiful and I want to make the same
I didn't know you could eat the leaves....Thanks !!!
I just subscribed. Your videos are so helpful.. thank you!
Thanks for subbing!
Excellent advice. What about adding bone meal to help the root get along?
I can’t wait to try this method. Thank u!
Thanks Jag, great advice I can’t wait to use it in a few weeks when I’m past the last frost date…..😊

Will peat moss work instead of coconut coir? Your videos are very useful!! Thank You.

Very nice. Thank you so much. Amen
Thank you!
Love your videos. You share such valuable information. Thank you!
I have been having trouble with them maturing underground but the greens have been amazing so I have been using them to ad to dishes.
Apply organic liquid fertilizer (according to directions) every two weeks while they are growing
Tops make wonderful pesto
I find your tips to be the best. 👍👏
Glad to hear that! :)
Hi Jag I hope everything is going good with you and your and your farm enjoy your weekend bye.
Hi Sandra, yes everything is good and back to normal now, thank you for asking!
The will grow fast if it hey are feed Good good videothan you Jag
Great video!
Would not having soil loosened up this way account for my meager radish success too? It's been a problem with most root crops for me so far.
@@ninerzulu3694 Nope, but both parts aren't terribly uncommon.
Yes, true for all root vegetables!
1:40 just be careful dear viewer, you may dig up the seeds with the water stream. Reduce the flow of water if possible.

Use a liquid fertilizer every 2 weeks according to directions, plant carrots in cooler months and not in summer and plant carrots in full sun
The. carrots are healthy foods
❤❤❤
So carrots do not like heat so plant in august for fall lol
My carrots have a lot of leaves but no carrots. I am living in tropical country
They need cold temperature, temperature not above 75F which is 23C
I buy fine fresh carrots without effort, why do I have the agricultural interest?
