Great idea! It’s funny how harvesting carrots is similar to potatoes in the excitement of not knowing how they’ll turn out. I’m sitting here in stiflingly hot Virginia marveling at the fact you’re wearing long sleeves!
I was thinking exactly the same! Sadly it's gone cold here.
Put cling film on them till they germinate
.worked 100% for me
Great idea.
No plastic…just use cardboard or thin wood plank works great!
@@carolyncarlon9870 only used it as had loads
We have grown carrots in an old suitcase in our allotment. We filled it with sand, compost and protect it with enviromesh against carrot root fly and the early results are good. We are eating thinnings at the moment. But they are growing much better than in our heavy soil. Love the root trainer idea and will have a go at that for late carrots.
So pleased you filmed the chantoney harvest!! I am planning on sowing the same variety this weekend. A 5ltr pot is amazing for that harvest! 🥕🥕👏👏
Great carrot harvest Erica. I'm growing Amsterdam Forcing too, also early Nantes and the small round one Atlas. I've had a good harvest so far. I know how you feel about bees, I have a bumble bee nest in my compost bin. Not keen at all. I have to garden with one eye on it as I really dont like them ever since I was a child and a swarm came down. I'll be glad when they go lol. Stay on the flowers, dont come near me!
Been a while so hopefully you are all ok Erica and looking forward to your updates, Ali 🇨🇦
Fantastic carrots they look really good. I will see how mine in the ground grow and if they don’t do well I might consider this👍🙋🏻
This time of year, Autumn King, they will be good in early winter.
100 percent! Thanks for watching.
The root trainers are a great idea. Why didn't I think of this??? Definitely think there's a market for root trainers specific to carrots. Maybe a few inches higher than the ones used here. I'm also now thinking of a cheap way to make a low budget DIY grid just for carrots. I've grown in containers before but had trouble with carrot root fly.
Your carrots are beautiful. Enjoyed watching you pull them as much as I enjoy pulling my own.
I find carrots from the shop just don’t taste as good as one you grow yourself. I’ve done more in some pots for over the winter. Wow not a bad harvest Erica well except for the last 3 🤭🤭. The good thing about those root trainers is you can harvest as needed if you only need a few at a time. Perfect looking carrots 🥕. Have a fab week Erica, Ali 🌞🥵🥵🇨🇦
And the shop bought ones are sprayed with goodness knows what chemicals.
Supermarket carrots taste like a totally different vegetable. My home carrot was cold,hard(eaten raw)and super sweet.
Nice carrot harvest! Mine are almost ready, i just gotta stay patient 😂
Fun video
Another great video! I've been disapointed with my carrots but now I have some tips to try to improve the harvert. I have a batch that just germinated. I'm trying them in sifted compost this time in 8 gallon cloth pots. I may need to invest in some root trainers. Thank you! Neil in Oregon
cracking video well done erica
Thank you
That’s a cracking harvest, I’d be happy with that 👍
I know, it's brilliant! 😊
I am in Wales as well. I decided to give gardening a try for the first ever time at the beginning of June. I sowed Beetroot seeds in a container on June 9th and they look almost ready to harvest. I can't remember the dates that I sowed the other seeds, but they are Chantenay Red core carrots in a long container and they are growing nicely. I then built a raised bed and sowed loads of Autumn King carrots, more beetroots, Savoy cabbages and little gem lettuces. I had to pull some out because it looked like almost every seed germinated. I bought tunnel hoops and covered the bed with mesh and polythene. Also, a couple of days ago I sowed silverskin onion seeds in a long container as well, so I am waiting for them to germinate.
I did rainbow
Wow. 😊
Lovely harvest. My best ones are growing in an old bonsai dish,all I had. Leaving mine for another week or so before pulling up as mine were sown later.
Thanks Erica, great harvest. After a bad start to carrot growing last year due to amateur mistakes and forgetting to sucession sow, I'm learning lots and hoping this year for better results. I am currently growing Autumn King and Nantes so hoping for a decent crop. 🙏
Hi Erica. Could you possibly let me know the size of the root trainers please, e.g. the depth? I thought they look particularly big, much bigger than what I find on Amazon, but it may be just how it looks on video. Your carrot harvest is very impressive. 🥕 Thank you for the video.
I’ve got some tall flower buckets I’ve drilled holes in I’m going to sow some carrots in those after your small pot grew so well , great tips .👍
Hi Erica, Great carrot harvest. Like yourself, I grew mine in the greenhouse in pots to avoid the dreaded carrot fly, and it turned out a mega failure. I think perhaps they were gatting frazzled with the sun.
great video. I've just lifted my best ever potato crop. Planted in 100% homemade compost. I love the root trainer idea. My second lot of carrots are in the polytunnel
Homemade compost has been amazing this year. 😊
Another amazing video thanks for sharing your garden 🪴
Well done. Great tip about growing inside and beginning of March seems to be a good time to start seeds.
Great Carrot harvest Erica, this is my first yr growing anything I'm growing Nantes, and they are more or less ready to harvest, I'm not expecting great results as I know I sewed far too many in my container, but if I get half dozen good ones that'll do me.. I didn't think I could start with another lot now so will deff get some more seeds in.. I'm loving the idea of the root trainers. Will sew mine in containers but after watching a few vids from gardners with great Carrot harvest, I'm going to seive my compost first, apparently this allows for the Carrot yo grow nice & straight with no odd shaped ones.. we will see lol.. x
Sounds great, I don't bother with the sieve! 😂
I would have honestly never thought of sowing carrots in a root trainer! Good Job 🙂
Brilliant isn't it?
Hiya, Erica! ❤ You are such a good speaker, your videos are always informative and easy to follow. One of these days I need to go through your original first videos to see your beginner progression, as I’m new to filming vids and feel I’m still awkward on camera. 😂 Hopefully one day I’ll be more comfortable and speak as well as you. 😅
That said, I’ve yet to grow a decent carrot. The last pot I was proud of went to seed. I will attempt to sow some more. 😂 Yours in the first pot are so cute! 🥰🌱❤️ Growing them in root trainers?! Brilliant! I’m going to try this!!!
This is spectacular!! Thank you for sharing.
Excellent video …. Well done that thst girl 🎉
Great video i'm growing multi coloured carrots & autumn kingxx
❤nice harvest 🎉🎉🎉
hello. How long does it take for carrots to be harvested and when do u know if its ready to be harvested. ty
hello amazing carrots! I was wondering how long/deep the root trainers are that you used.
Do you have to harvest them all at the same time. Can’t you just take them as you need them?
Yes you can take as you want for sure but it wouldn't have made a very good CZcams video if I did that. 😂
@@ericaslittlewelshgarden I see, cool thanks!
Hi Ericy, i hope youre well as ive missed seeing ypu on YT. I was also wanting to ask which deep root module bramd you grew your carrots in please; as i'd like to give that a go over the end of autumn/early winter. Thank you.
Did you pull the oxhearts? I wanted to do a comparison.
I have come back
Great harvest, any idea where to purchase these large root trainers ?
Where can we purchase the carrot root trainers?🌱
