Container Gardening: Growing Carrots in Flower Boxes and Onions in Seed Trays - TRG 2015

Tips, Tricks

1. Freshly pulled carrots taste wonderful. Well worth growing at home.
2. Perfect onion for an omelet! YUM!
3. Hi Gary, i stumbled upon your channel while looking for info about growing onions in small containers. I love the way you grow them in those seed trays! Could you please do a video on how you grow those onions in seed trays from start till finish because i cant find any info online about this technique. I do all my gardening on a small balcony and this seems like and ideal and fun way for me to grow onions on a limited space.
4. Can I start carrots from seeds indoors under grow lights?
5. This is awesome! I am not sure where I will find seeds for carrots like that, and I have not even begun to look into onion seeds, but wow! I run my garden almost entirely container based, and have a grow closet like Praxxus55712's grow room, but exponentially smaller. I have lights that put out the equivalent of 600w incandescent, and I have these trays and seed cells. It is nice and warm and humid in there, and if I can grow carrots and onions in the winter, I certainly will try it! I need to find white onion seeds and carrot seeds like you recommend here... online somewhere? My town is rather bereft of good places to get a variety of seed. Do you have any further recommendations for someone in my situation? My lights are on from 6am to 10pm, and are on a timer. Great video, I keep going through your channel to find more, and you can thank Ray for the connection to your channel. :) -Kim
6. Could you grow those carrots or onions in those containers inside during the winter, like in a southern exposure window?
7. I garry first of all I want to thank you for your amazing educational video's. I harvest cucumbers. Peppers and tomatoes coming on nice. Garry I need your help. I purchased the premier peat moss at home depot to set my seeds and for my containers plant. I noticed centipede in the soil when I transplanted my vegetables. I killed them immediately. This morning when I was watering my plant's I saw another baby centipede. I hate centepede!! They bite really bad and they give me the creeps. What can I spray to kill any eggs/baby centipede in my plant containers without damaging them. Also sprays I can use for in my house to prevent then from coming in my house.
8. Another great video as always. Thanks for the info and sharing.
9. was those onions from seed?   I   Like  The  Little  Round Sze
10. What great news about onions.  I'm going to try that in the future.  I miss my onions but don't grow them in the raised beds any longer since changing partially to perennial flowers so I don't have to tend veggies on a daily basis.  Can't bend these days.
11. I love home grown carrots, thanks for sharing the container growing method.  I'm going to do this in the fall.
12. great video! tfs!
13. You can use the carrot tops for pesto. Just substitute the tops for basil. My family likes it much better.
14. Wow. Thanks so much for this info, I needed this :)
15. Can you recommend a good fertilizer that is for vegetables, pots and organic 
16. Thanks for sharing. Great idea on the carrots and onios. God Bless and take care.
17. Great video Gary! Did you grow those onions from seed? I have tried to grow green onions from seed and they start and then always die  as babies, never getting more than a really weak and short chives type of thing. I'm not done trying but those onions are great, sure would like to try them. How long did they take to grow from seed to harvest, assuming it was from seed... TIA
18. Thanks for the great tips.  While I can't duplicate your success I can do something similar based on my environment!
19. How do you know when to pull carrots? I'm growing scarlet nantes. Thanks.
20. Btw I'm growing them in a really big container so they should have tons of room.
