Thanks for the tips Ivan…. I definitely don’t want a Bev and Trev in my containers hahaha!! 🤣🤣🤣
No i agree comical when we pulled them last year but no good for food
Great video. Thanks Ivan 🙂
Glad you liked it!
Thank you
Best of luck Ivan. Do you fancy getting an allotment near your new home. I wish you peace, joy and happiness in your new home x
Trying to find out but the container venture will do for now
Thank you
I like your hand water pump ..cling wrap is a good tip.
So do i makes watering much easier
thank you for watching
i have always grown carrots in containers but never tried parsnips! parsnips are something that ive really tried to get used to over the years and the last 2 times ive tried them they were yummy!
Thank you
Thanks Ivan for todays great instructions and tips mate. Take care and all the best. Stevie
Thanks for that Steve/Stevie
Cheers Ivan. Stevie
Who would have thought carrots would grow in a container. I'm going to try this method.
We do it every year
good luck Anita
Really clear to follow. Thanks for sharing Ivan. 😊
Thank you Joanne let me know how you go
Great advice again! 😉
Thank you Happy
That's really helpful, thank you. I already have some carrots under way in a container, I must get some parsnips going too. On the topic of containers - I know a farmer and got 2 very large black containers from him, they're calf feed containers and once they're empty they need to get rid of them. I've got 5 seed potatoes on the go in each one, just needed to drill drainage holes.
Thats great
Guess you are in for a bumper crop this year Jackie
Great tip about the cling film. Have grown carrots in buckets for several years with great success, not having had decent crops in the raised beds. Not had much luck with parsnips so will try this way. Best wishes J
Thank you Judith i really appreciate the feedback
I am a newbie to veg gardening, and I have recently tried growing carrots in a biggish plant pot. Only to have them turn out tiny. What did I do wrong? I think maybe the pot wasn't deep enough, but then it could also be that I put too many seeds in.
Lovely job. Got a few pots that size so will give it a go I reckon. Hope they don't turn out like my icon.
Lol
Great pic but hopefully a one off
Thank you for viewing
Hi Ivan. I was going to have a go at growing carrots this year in a bucket with holes and keeping in greenhouse over winter. I looked back to find this video of yours from a year ago but i was wondering if I have left it too late ? If still time what variety would you recommend. I have Early Nantes, Igloo and little Finger seed. Would any of those be suitable do you think? Thanks ivan.
Hi Trevor September is the last month for sowing Carrots little finger are a good choice as they develop quicker but you can also try others and carrots can take a frost and stand all Winter
Thank you
OMG I think i am addicted to your channel ...so much more helpful than some of the other Uk Gardening channels I have come across and watched. I am a complete black thumb and am actually growing some veg. I really like your simplicity as well. Thank you. Would you plant carrots seeds now or am I too late?
Much appreciated Thank you Stephanie
Maincrop Carrots are usually sown outside by the end of may but if sowing in pots you can extend the sowing time as you can offer shelter
Great valuable information, thanks Ivan. Did you manage to get any black ex container buckets. Thanks for sharing.
Not yet still have a few to go at here
Thank you for the tip
Great video thank you. How long do they take to grow and how often should I water?
Hi Mark Parsnips need a long growing season and only need watering once every 2 weeks unless really hot if planted in Spring they will be ready in Autumn
Carrots take around 4 months to mature water once every 2-3 days
Thank you
Great video for beginner here who is about to sow carrots in a container. 😅 can I ask what sort of depth should be aim for with containers for carrots? I have a few different sized ones but don't want to 'waste' a bigger one if they will grow fine in a smaller one.
I also have a 40cm length window trough, which is about 30cm deep. Would that work?
Thank you in advance ❤
I would say up to 10 inches will be fine so yes that would work
Thank you Hayley
Hi there. What is the lumpy stuff that you put in at the bottom of the pot?
Would wood chips works as well?
Hi its what is left after i sieve the compost so no waste
Hi what’s your new Chanel called in the caravan
Caravan Life UK
@@ivans-gardening-allotment-uk I’m on it now
Do you use fertiliser? Some say not to do so on carrots and parsnips..
No because too much causes them to fork
Thank you
Nice video. Just subbed. Newbie here only done some potatoes and some herbs and flowers from seed this year as a novice but fancy doing a few more bits next year so planning early. Nice video. What depth are your tubs and what would you say the minimum depth needed would be for carrots and turnips? And when would you sow them? Thanks in advance for the answers. All the best from a rainy lancs!
Great stuff Thank you for the Sub and best of luck Mark
