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!

I didn't grow carrots last year because I hate trying to get them to germinate outside and then thinning is such a pain. This year I'm using your method and already have 16 dozen carrots growing in the garden. No thinning! I LOVE this! Thank you!
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
I have never had luck with carrots but I'm going to try this right now! Thanks.
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.
I have tried to grow carrots also. However, they are usually small spindle stalks looking very thin and I feel sorry for pulling them out of the ground when they are so small.
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 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! 🥕🌄🥕
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!
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.
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.
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.
Yep, I’m doing that this year. Such a great idea, and so easy.
You are welcome
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.
Lobe the no weeds and perfect spacing .. will be doing yours next to old way .thanks again. Brilliant
Wow, thank you for a great idea. I'm gonna do that for my beats too following a little bit of adjustment
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!
What a great idea, ive seen them used as seed trays but not to use in the garden itself.
Yup!! Super Cool!! I'm on it!! Thank You!!
That’s fantastic! I never would’ve thought of that. Thank you for sharing 😊
you're welcome
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 !🍀
That's brilliant! You just made my day!
This egg carton method is a great idea .... thanks a lot .... it makes gardening pleasurable now. ❤❤
You are welcome
I really like this idea. I'm trying different things this year, so will definitely try this one, thanks!
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!
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.
That is a great way to sow and grow carrots. I am going to do that. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! I will try this!
Thats the best idea ive seen in a long time, going to try this year 😊 😊
trying this method tomorrow ! Thank you!
Pure genius. You just changed my life for the better forever eternity.
Can’t wait to try this method. Thank you❤
You are welcome
This is such a wonderful idea. I'm definitely going to try this method 😀
thankyou for sharing your knowledge!!!!!
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!
I’m trying this now!
This is brilliant! Thank you.
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???.
Rien à dire ! C'est complètement génial !
This is soooo amazing. You a my HERO. Thank you for such a magnificent idea. You are a great teacher!!! 🙌🙌💯
thank you, this was very interesting and I'm happy that I learned something from watching it.
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
Seems like a great idea, I think I will try it! Thank you.
Beautiful and tasty. Thank you AMAZING GARDEN!
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.
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
Thanks for sharing. This is the best video on RUclips 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
Thanks...going to try this method this Summer
Thanks for the wonderful tip!
That is a very creative idea. Thank you for sharing . My achy back and patience thank you, as well!
Amazing! Thank you!
This is a great idea, but we don't buy eggs anymore. We get them free. 🙂 So I came up with an alternative to get the same effect doing the following: Make a template out of thin hard board or 1/4" plywood with the proper spacing. Make the holes the right diameter so a hand dibber will poke through and make the correct depth hole. Lay plain sheets of cardboard (like cut from large boxes) onto the soil and soak. Place your template on the cardboard and poke holes with the dibber. The dibber will poke easily through the wet cardboard. Tadaaa!
Thank you so much. I will try to do the same thing
Wow great idea!! Thank you!!
Beautiful job! Thank you sharing!
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
Thank you for your reply 🙏
wonderful ! Thanks for sharing !
Thank you for sharing, must try this 😊
Great idea. Very innovative. Thanks for the tip. Excellent video. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
You are welcome
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.
absolutely brilliant
Thank you, love from Ireland
You are welcome
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.
I love this idea!
This is really a neat idea, 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.
Wow.. very good idea ! Thanks a lot!!!
Hi it is my first time on your channel and I have just subscribed to you. Great idea, thank you so much for sharing. Keep up the good work.
Love this idea - will dive this a go. However it'll be planting in grow bags.
Thank you.
Muy buena idea gracias❤
Wow this is amazing idea! I’m going to try it this year 👍
Thank you.
Great idea!👍🏼
Super method!
Wonderful thank you.
Brilliant! Now I know why I've been saving egg cartons :)
This looks super easy! What other vegetable and flower seeds can be sown this way?
Gardening is a permanent experimentation. I am going to try this method,and have already ordered egg cartons. Tired of pruning and removing weeds.
Cool idea! Gona try this..just don’t wait too long for seeds to sit in the bag. Once they sprout get them in the soil. Cheers!
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!
Nice job!!
This also works well with staggering your planting. plant two trays, then a week later plant two more, then another two and so on.
Excellent 😃 Thank you very much for sharing this method 🙏 Very well thought out..
You are welcome
@@amazinggarden definitely gonna be trying soon 😁
Total genius!
You, Sir, are a genius.
Very nice! In areas with hot climates, water evaporation is incredibly fas on the first fewbinches of soil .. even mulch doesn't help in blazing summer sun. The cardboard egg crates will become compost after harvest. Nice!
This method is a lifesaver for areas where it is very hot.
I love it. efficient and neat. Can I germinate beet seeds using this process?
What a great idea, I have thought of using egg cartons but was never sure it would work because they are shallow in depth. Putting a hole in the base of the cartons 🙃. I never thought about using the shovel to pick up the cartons and transfer them that way. I thought they would just fall apart as you lift them. I will defiantly try this technique.
I have used cardboard juice containers, cutting holes in the base and sides to allow drainage and the roots to poke through. The wax that they use to waterproof the carboard seems to breakdown in the soil ok and you can get a fair amount of potting mix in each container. I just transplant them straight into the soil, this saves transplant shock with larger plants e.g. tomato/ capsicums/chili, Lettice etc. Thanks for sharing, cheers.
Great idea. 😊
Love it! Thank you.
You are welcome.
Very nice indeed. Egg trays can also be used to pre-sprout seed potatoes. So if planned carefully one could reuse them twice.
Amazing!
Ingenious!
This method IS super cool - thanks
You are welcome
Thank you
Genius - doing right now - wondering how about for fatter root veggies - just use every other egg carton cup??? Thanks so much for this video!
Brilliant technique. I always have crappy results either carrots. Will probably try.
❤❤❤ thank you brilliant❤❤
This is ingenious! 👏
Thank you.
