Direct Seeding Carrots and Brassicas

Last summer I trialed direct seeding some of my fall brassicas. Not my most prized ones, but some. And what I found out was bok choy is the champion of every season, just like carrots and beets.

This surprised me, but I did direct seed it a few times in summer and transplanted them around and we had bok choy for almost the entire season.

This video also highlights my carrot preparation and seeding, as well as how I thin my carrots, which I just did last week. And in another couple weeks I’ll be doing this exact same seeding and using burlap to keep the soil cool and moist to aid in germination.

Hope you find this timely and helpful.
