    Hi James,
    I just started watching your videos a month ago! Very informative and entertaining-- I have learned a lot from you. I had a garden helper too, (my Corgi, who sadly passed away last summer). I called her my "garden inspector," with a special interest in sugar snap peas. She is greatly missed.
    I have a different method fot germinating carrot seeds. I live in Palmer, Alaska, home of world record giant vegetables, fertile glacial soil and land of the midnight sun. The extra long days impart a special sweetness to carrots and many other vegetables.
    Because our climate is semi-arid, we have to be extra careful about keeping seeds from drying out, especially carrot seeds. I have had success covering my newly planted and watered carrot seeds tightly with plastic, stapling it tight to my raised beds. Not only does this encouage seedlings to sprout twice as fast, it keeps moose from trodding through it, as well! (They love walking through freshly dug soil.) As soon as most of the carrots have sprouted, I remove the plastic and put stakes around, again, to discourage moose. Last fall I harvested 300 (mostly enormous) carrots from four 2 × 6 raised beds!

    Great video! I love growing carrots! I live in Fl so we can grow a Lot all year long. My dog does the same thing Lol. I don't use chemical pesticide either. My garden actually has peppers growing right now, green beans, herbs, radish, watermelon, peas, blueberries, blackberries, lettuce and much more.. I'm hoping to get some support, to be able to donate most of what I grow to people in need. It's a dream I've been working hard to achieve along with homesteading of course! I want a bee hive too!

    I Love that Tuck picks his own carrots. I've got a Husky that picks and eats my tomatoes, she only picks the ripe ones. Last year I had four sweetie pepper plants that I was allowing the peppers to mature on, one morning I walked out onto my deck to find a perfect pile of peppers. The little Angel had picked ALL of my sweetie peppers that were ripe and left them in a perfect pile for me. ( I wanted to strangle the darling). Which is amazing cuz she loves peppers but she didn't eat them until I said she could. Anyway, maybe she knew better than I that they were ripe. You've got a great gardening buddy there in tuck. Good luck.

    When I was little, my dad would pull up a carrot and wipe it on his pants and give it to me to eat, haha... his pants were probably more germy than the soil. I did ok. I loved them. The tops are great in soup. Never have to buy parsley. I just found you, and would enjoy hearing anything about pruners, and varieties. I haven't been gardening, but would like to, so anything is helpful. Great presentation. Thanks for showing us how you do it.

    I recommend getting a garden shredder for all the woody stuff including sunflower stems etc.. After schredding and combined with enough greens like garden waste or grass clippings, it breaks down quite fast. It also helps to keep your compost loose and aerated.

      I mentioned it in the video where I showed how I planted them with the board, I linked it in the description. But I suggest checking after about 4 days or so, and continuing to do so every day after that. You want to take the board off once you see some popping up, cause once you see a few up they should all be germinated and the others just about to wake up 😁

    I am planting Danvers (carrots) in a grow bag.
    We have a burn pile in the yard. After burning old branches, I shovel the warm ash into 5-gallon buckets. I mix this with pine bark that I hammer off of old, felled pine trees, and mix both the ash and pine bark with dirt from the ground in areas that are wet, covered with vines ... so ....
    1. Warm ash
    2. Foraged pine park
    3. Dirt
    Then, after planting and watering, I put the bigger wood chips over it, to insulate the soil. This superheats the soil. I did this same technique with the garden and plants shot up fast.
