Good day, dear readers and subscribers! Today I want to share with you unique way planting carrots in the trays out of the eggs. I do not know who invented it, but the process is actually a unique, proven and incredibly convenient!
Before planting any means necessary to carry out some training. So, in order:
Autumn sowing of carrots
In podzimnego sowing of carrots has a number of impressive advantages:
- Getting an earlier harvest. In the spring you can enjoy the young and vitamin morkovochkoy.
- Bountiful harvest. It has long been known that the yield of winter carrots per unit area is much higher than the yield of spring.
- The ability to use the freed from the carrot plot for other crops. After the summer harvest carrots on a bed can be freed to grow radishes or any greens.
Dates of sowing carrots
Just want to warn against a possible error. Do not rush to sowing podzimny carrots in September. If the seeds will be in a warm and moist soil, they germinate. And with the onset of frost may simply die.
The most optimal time for planting podzimnego - the second half of October. Although, if we take into account that this year autumn we still indulge the heat and the sun, it is best to wait for the time when the temperature dropped to 0 to + 2 ° C.
soil preparation
In order that we can count on a rich and early harvest, you need to prepare the soil for sowing and make the beds:
- Humus.
- Phosphorus-potassium fertilizer or wood ash.
- Sand (if the soil is heavy on your site).
Choosing a place to land, do not forget about the rules of crop rotation. The best precursors for carrots - it cucumbers, potatoes, onions, tomatoes, squash, pumpkin, cabbage and melons.
Sowing carrots using trays out of eggs
I want to say thank you to the person who invented this method! This method is much easier and planting and care of the carrot bed. There are two ways to use the trays:
method â„–1
On the prepared bed of stacked tray. Then lightly press down his hands and shoot. As a result, on the bed formed uniform wells in which sown and carrots.
Frankly, this option I do not particularly like. It is no less laborious than all the ordinary ones. The only difference is that the rows are a little smoother.
method â„–2
Seeds at once expanded in cell trays. By the way, this can be done by sitting at home at the table, rather than standing in raskoryachku in the garden. Then stack the trays with seeds on a bed, just lightly press down, deepening and sprinkle on top of the ground. In the bed of small seeded carrots pour humus layer (2-3 cm). And yet! Planting is over!
Experienced gardeners recommend to moisten the trays before planting. With spring planting is necessary to ensure that cardboard is not pulling the moisture out of the soil. And when the winter - so that it is well decomposed in the winter, which will give the roots can freely grow in the soil.
