You have the best cornstarch planting video on the internet. Everyone else fails to explain the ratios and/or the amount of seeds what amount covers. My carrots from my first run are doing well, I'm starting my second run today. Thank you
I have tried various methods and this time I have used the method that you described. I have soaked my seed for four days before I made the cornstarch mixture. I planted mine plus minus 1 cm deep and the carrots started showing signs on day 10. So, in total it is 14 days from soaking the seeds. In my opinion this method is by far the easiest and the quickest with the best results.
Yayyyy I'm so happy it worked for you!! So many people have been writing and letting me know their results and sending me pictures on Facebook. It took mine a bit faster to sprout out but it all depends on the conditions.
Ok so I was intrigued by this idea and a bit skeptical since I couldn’t find a follow up video on how successful this method was for you. But I can’t resist a good garden experiment and I already had all the stuff on hand. So I followed your directions pretty much exactly and… IT WORKS! Holy crap it works. Less than 7 days after the start of the process (soaking the seeds) I have rows of baby carrot sprouts in my garden bed! I’ve never had carrots germinate and grow this quickly. This method is worth it for that aspect alone but I also appreciate that I’ll have less thinning to do than usual. Thank you for the tutorial! This is definitely my new go-to carrot-sowing method.
Oh yay :))) I'm so glad. I did a follow up on my last garden tour video. Would you be able to send me a few photos via email or a short clip? I would be so grateful. Been looking for some subscribers results. I'm gathering a few to show in a video.
@@HerEcolife I would be happy to email you some pics. I just snapped some pics of the carrot seedlings emerging from the soil. I wish I had taken pictures of the process. I can gather up the supplies I used and snap a photo of those too if it will help. Oh and what’s your email address?

The corn starch gel is the coolest method I have ever seen and I have been growing a veggie garden for almost 50 years! I am going to try it this year! I love carrots and I also decided not to become a carrot grower for the same reasons on our farm. The infrastructure is very expensive and we already are commercial beef cattle producers already so we are somewhat busy.
My mother showed me a similar method 50 years ago, only she used wallpaper paste instead of cornstarch, and I have been growing carrots successfully ever since.
Sweet method. Will be experimenting this spring--thank you kindly! Commenting to suggest that you post the link to your follow up video in either the description or in a pinned comment. I've spent a few minutes looking on this page and will definitely visit your homepage to locate it, but many will not. My advanced apologies if I somehow missed it. Cheers!
I'm envious of your deep, rich, organic soil. Here in northeast Georgia we have red clay, which requires alot of amending with compost. Your black and white cat has the identical pattern my cat "Thomas" had and looks like his twin.
We struck Gold with this soil for sure. The pastures are not so good though. Very rich black soil that turns to mud. Alot of work to do to make it better for the horses hooves. Can't have everything right?
@@childofgod3675 i have sandy soil to, luckily. It's not as rich as other types of soil, but it is easy to work and irrigates wel. You know what muddy means when you've spend fall and early spring on heavy clay.
Aloha from Big Island 🌴 of Hawai’i My 🥕 carrots are in the beginning stage still ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️it’s still small, can’t wait to move it into the raise beds; we have snails 🐌 slugs are not good So we have raise beds 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
OHH! Canada!!! love the accent! please keep the videos coming and do not change a thing! I think it is wonderful that the web gets it's multi-culturalisem (sp). more people like you makes the world nicer : )
Following from Kenya. Am impressed. Av never grown carrots before but i want to give it a try using the two methods of sand corn starch on separate areas. Cant wait to start. Going out to prepare my backyard garden and sock my seeds too. Thanks for this hacks.
You can easily start 10 carrots per 2" seed starter hole. When the carrots have germinated and the tops are about 2" tall, you can pop them out of the starter hole and plant them, spaced perfectly in your garden. That way, there is no need for sand or corn starch. It's easy and there's no need for thinning. Thanks, you do wonderful work.
Thanks :) I have heard of people doing that. Unfortunately the time I would spend bent over to transplant them out on the peek of Mosquito season would be just unbearable. I really adopted this method after trying it. It was so fast.
That carrot thief had me laughing till I cried. Soo funny. Thx for the upload. I'm definitely giving this a go. I've had enough of growing seedlings under lights and then having to transplant them. One at a time.
Cool carrot trick love! I remember your harvest video...it was amazing. Yas grass to garden, flip and feeds the soil yes! QUEEN! perfect for carrots. elbow deep in soil....now that is living! You have neat tools and ideas. Love it. My carrots are almost ready already! I will plant more in fall...of course we are in very different climates but we can still learn from each-other. You get a lot of great summer SUN up there!
Thanks! It is very easy to make starch from hash browns by saving the water you soaked the shred in. Or save the water from washing rice. Let the starch settle to the bottom drain off water and dry it out. You helped me, hope I helped you.
@@HerEcolife Here it is 8 months later and I'm finally writing back to tell you it worked great ! Sadly my mother passed away this summer; however when my 5 year old grandson and his family came for her funeral, the carrots I had planted were ready. He enjoyed pulling up the carrots, taking them inside and having them for dinner. I can't wait until spring to plant a bunch more! Thanks again!!
A big hug to you girl, I tried your method of planting carrots in a cornstarch and water mixture. I changed it up just a bit, I just put the seeds in the mixture, added some water to thin it down and WHOA! in less then 3 weeks my carrots were growing. Thank you,
Just found your channel! Love it! They say, 'when the student's ready, the teacher appears'...Thanks for your time and talent. Appreciated. New sub.❤ from 🇯🇲
Great idea. My dear old dad used to do something similar but he used wallpaper paste (non fungicide) worked really well for carrots, radish and other root veg.
In my July Garden tour. They were doing great until they got eaten by slugs and hit with a late frost. but I do have a friend that showed her results Green witch homestead.
Brilliant!! I'll probably be trying this in the fall... Getting too warm here for another planting of Carrots for the summer. I love the old school tools too :)
I tried your advice. My only caution in using this method is to make the hole for dispensing very small. The mixture with the seeds is very thin and will easily apply too much .wasting seeds and causing more work to thin them out later on. Slick Idea ! Bravo !
the gel looks like fish/frog eggs and virtually does the same thing and the egg white. Cool idea. I'm intriged by low till now and definately going to watch your older videos on the subject.
Ok, I’ve used you gel technique and with practice I’m sure it will go better. I’ve added a twist to keeping the soil moist until the leafs start to come up. I’ve covered my 4x8 bed with plastic to keep in the moisture in and straw covered with a row cover to keep the sun for cooking. I’ll keep you posted on the outcome. Thanks for your helpful information.
This lady is brilliant. Thank you! I'm curious on the results but I already know it's going to work amazing. I can't believe I never thought to do this or at least something similar. 🤯
Very nice. This popped up on my feed, and as soon as I saw "carrots". I had to click on it. My carrot growing sucks, and I do it in containers, so anything carrots I watch, and I learned something today. I have never soaked carrot seeds before, so I am going to try that method. Thank you for sharing this.
I'm glad it popped up in your feed :) It worked great up until lol they got eaten. I will be harvesting them this week. I think I will have a decent harvest :) I did an update on them last week.
Your dog stole a carrot! :) I think your carrots are going to love the soft soil, they should be able to grow more easily and straight. You can never go wrong with carrots, they can be used for a lot of things.
Thank you very much for that. I never had much luck with maincrop carrots, only with early carrots, because in the UK we tend to get dryer weather around late spring and early summer. I'll definitely give the cornstarch method a go. Only thing I wish I could see was how to pre-germinate the seeds before mixing with the cornstarch mix.
THANK YOU,,AT THE END OF THE CORNSTARCH METHED,YOU COVER WITH DIRT AND PACK THEM DOWN..I THOUGHT YOU DON'T WANT COVER THE SEED WITH MUCH DIRT.. FROM MAINE USA ,THANK YOU
Minimum dirt on top of course but enough to keep the soil wet on top and not too much to let the seeds come through. The more soil you out on top the longer it takes for the plant to reach the sun.
Your soil makes my mouth water!🤣🌿 Wow!!! All the way to the elbow. 😳 Awesome video and carrot planting ideas. Blessings from Alabama!First time watching you. Canada looks beautiful.
Lol as it should 😂 I am in love with my soil here. It's been a long 3 years to get it where I want it to be but it's here to stay. Until I decide to do a complet make over of the gardens one day.

@@HerEcolife do you start with 1/2 teaspoon of carrot seeds. Can you please give a measurement of the seeds per cornstarch mixture.

I could almost smell and taste those carrots right out of the ground! Wonderful garden tips, your soil is awesome!
Thanks Pat. Yeah this soil has been a work in progress for sure.
Love both methods, especially the cornstarch (I work long hours).... Score.
I will be trying these next week in containers.Just love your channel!
Great idea. My dear old dad used to do something similar but he used wallpaper paste (non fungicide) worked really well for carrots, radish and other root veg.
I have also used wallpaper paste but I like the cornflour paste method better since it is eating quality. I will give this method a go,
That used to be a good method but these days pretty much all wallpaper paste has fungicidal chemicals so this method is a good replacement.
fungicide is not a problem and could well be advantageous.
Now that was cool thanks for the tip for the seeds. 5 stars

putting a board over the rows helps with moisture remove after 3 days . like the corn powder juice idea keeping them wet !
Genius on the corn starch idea.

Slick Idea ! Bravo !
Yea its best to make the hole smaller and make it bigger if needed. Making a hole smaller is a bit harder lol
