    Hi James,
    I just started watching your videos a month ago! Very informative and entertaining-- I have learned a lot from you. I had a garden helper too, (my Corgi, who sadly passed away last summer). I called her my "garden inspector," with a special interest in sugar snap peas. She is greatly missed.
    I have a different method fot germinating carrot seeds. I live in Palmer, Alaska, home of world record giant vegetables, fertile glacial soil and land of the midnight sun. The extra long days impart a special sweetness to carrots and many other vegetables.
    Because our climate is semi-arid, we have to be extra careful about keeping seeds from drying out, especially carrot seeds. I have had success covering my newly planted and watered carrot seeds tightly with plastic, stapling it tight to my raised beds. Not only does this encouage seedlings to sprout twice as fast, it keeps moose from trodding through it, as well! (They love walking through freshly dug soil.) As soon as most of the carrots have sprouted, I remove the plastic and put stakes around, again, to discourage moose. Last fall I harvested 300 (mostly enormous) carrots from four 2 × 6 raised beds!

    This is my fave gardening show. Lots of info in very little time. Plus, your enthusiasm is contagious.I’ve been gardening for over 40 years(poorly!) & I learn something new with each of your videos. ‘Bout time I learned something! Tuck is a delight! Always well loved. Thank you. Keep up the good work!

    In Canada we have Seeds of Diversity where lay people from all over the country save seeds and offer them up to other members; all heritage and heirloom varieties most not found in stores. This year I get most of my seeds from there and learn how to protect veggies avoiding crossing them so I too can save seeds and share. ❤️

    I Love that Tuck picks his own carrots. I've got a Husky that picks and eats my tomatoes, she only picks the ripe ones. Last year I had four sweetie pepper plants that I was allowing the peppers to mature on, one morning I walked out onto my deck to find a perfect pile of peppers. The little Angel had picked ALL of my sweetie peppers that were ripe and left them in a perfect pile for me. ( I wanted to strangle the darling). Which is amazing cuz she loves peppers but she didn't eat them until I said she could. Anyway, maybe she knew better than I that they were ripe. You've got a great gardening buddy there in tuck. Good luck.

      I mentioned it in the video where I showed how I planted them with the board, I linked it in the description. But I suggest checking after about 4 days or so, and continuing to do so every day after that. You want to take the board off once you see some popping up, cause once you see a few up they should all be germinated and the others just about to wake up 😁

Literally, all I did, was remove my leaves to create a garden soil row, made sure the soil was flat, sprinkled my carrot seed ON TOP of the soil, used a watering can to soak the seed into the soil, covered the row with a board, left it alone for about 5 days, carrots starting coming up. That easy. I've still got carrots for the winter, out in my garden.
