How To Grow Carrots In Containers or 5 Gallon Buckets

#tendersweetcarrots #howtogrowcarrots #urbangardening
In this video, I will show you how to grow lots of carrots in a 5 gallon bucket or any container of your choice as long as it is high enough for the carrots to grow downward. I'll show you how to prepare your soil and how to prevent slugs from eating your seedlings as the carrots mature.

I like your idea of growing things in pots. I have carrot seeds and will use your foil tip. Have a nice weekend. 🥕🥕

Thanks Alan! I'm sure your carrots will be stellar. Have a great weekend!

Aloha Misty this was very interesting with growing carrots, can’t wait to see you harvest them in October

[@HawaiiUrbanGardener]

Thanks so much Paula! I'll show them when they're ready. Hopefully they'll be good. 😊

I was wondering about growing carrots in a self wicking pot. Mainly because of how they cannot ever dry out during germination, which is so long. Do you think that would work?

[@titasmom678]

I never knew that about tin foil. Will definitely do this as we were thinking of growing carrots

[@HawaiiUrbanGardener]

Awesome! Let me know how it comes out when you do grow them.

Hi Misty, how did the harvest of Carrots go? Hopefully they were plentiful!😉

[@HawaiiUrbanGardener]

Hi Elaine. Unfortunately they all grew stunted. I don't know why but that was my first time doing tendersweet. I am going back to Danvers carrots where I had much success but I replanted three weeks ago and something ate them all. So starting from scratch all over again
