🤔 ruled out medium? Was the circumference bigger than noted on the carrots? Perhaps not enough pressure to force em down got fat and content not wanting to grow down 🤷♂️ just reckless speculation
Deep water cranberries 😆 make your own craisins 🤷♂️
Great Video as always!
I don’t see the link that shows you how you created the Barrels.

@@HomegrownPassion Thanks for the quick response!
You never do anything wrong. You just encounter situations that may require alternative approaches. A bit of background about the crops you showed. My mother grew all three in a sandy soil that had a bit of clay, in Northern NY. All 3 did well. In Southern Quebec are large carrot farms. They all grow in a black muck with exceptional results. Your approach may be that you simply take some of your native soil, sterilize it, and give that a try. Your beets were awesome. They reminded me of the beet greens my mother would prepare.
Thank you for sharing what you do.
In the past, I have only tried growing carrots once and I had the same results. I have never tried the other two because I don’t eat them. I just keep looking over your shoulder to your tomatoes. I’m just amazed by the numbers that you have on your plants. I keep learning.
Soil tension. Hmm. An interesting concept that I never thought about before.
This may not help you, but it might help someone that grows in raised beds. I grow carrots in soil in raised beds in the spring and late summer. The soil in my raised beds is about three inches from the top of the bed. The way I get my carrots to germinate is to spread the seeds on top of the soil and lightly cover them with sifted soil. Then I water well and cove the raised bed with plastic and white cover cloth. This makes it like a small greenhouse and keeps the soil moisture. Once I see the carrots have sprouted, I remove the cover cloth and plastic.
