Thanks for watching!

Hey! Nice carrots. What varieties work for you and do you recall the dtm on which you harvested the ones in the video?

[@farmtablewest5991]

Mokum is my favorite. It takes about 70 days for full carrots in my climate. 60 for baby.

[@afirstgenerationfarmer9791]

I've been watching your channel for about a couple months now I just started using a new product from bonide I don't know if it's around you it's called Dead weed Brew. And it really kills any weed perennial or annual it is amazing. It's about anywhere from 25 to 32.00 dollars for the concentrate. And the concentrate can make up to 8 gallons For the buying weed I would use the ratio of 12 oz per gallon and coat the leaves within 2 days you'll see a result of them dying to the root. No more pulling at bineweed weed

[@farmtablewest5991]

Wow thank you I'll give it a try.

Have you consider selling everything to restaurants? what are the cons and pros?

[@farmtablewest5991]

I do sell to a select group only select crops like salad greens and herbs. I like that because I can afford to give a volume discount which they appreciate and it's flexible enough where I don't over promise and under deliver. Plus restaurants can be flaky customers so it's important to only work with those that buy consistent volumes every week.

Gypsum will open the clay

[@farmtablewest5991]

I'm adding limestone because gypsum will add too much sulfur according to my soil test guy.
