    Im on day 11 with my carrots in shallow cardboard boxes lined with plastic outdoors. They are beautiful but will quickly need more room. Should i transplant them into grow bags now, or wait? Also, should i add garden vegetable/fruit waste to the soil?
    I have other vegetables like broccoli, squash, beets, tomatoes, and much more doing the same. They are growing beautifully ❤ but i am unsure when to transplant them to grow bage. For the big vegetables i have 5 lb bags, medium 3 lb, and for herbs 1lb. Love your videos!! New sub!

    • @Liap
      @Liap  Před měsícem +1

      Hello. I wouldn't transplant carrots at all. You can damage or lose their taproot therefore they are better sown directly. How shallow are those boxes? And what is the carrot variety?
      No, don't add any veg/fruit waste to the soil.
      The best time to transplant is as soon as the weather allows to. For example I have already transplanted broccoli and lettuces, but tomatoes and peppers have to wait until cold nights are gone.

    At 1:21 you state a temperature. Is this the temp of the water you are using? If so, has every watering got to be around that temp or are you ok to use unheated water after that? Sorry for the enquiry, my dad passed away and I'm the new understudy!

    • @Liap
      @Liap  Před měsícem +1

      Hello. That is the optimal temperature for carrot seeds germiation. You can water it with cold water, as long as the around temperature is as warmer so the soil will heat up.

    That's a lot of soil cost for a few dozen carrots.. even though these are not normal carrots - they only cost $1.25 a lb in the store... I'd say you spent a lot more than that on seeds, water, soil and the containers.
