when thinning them out, you can pull up a little seeding, doing it carefully so you'll get all/most of the roots with it, and then replant the little seedling, leaving room around it.

One of these days you are going to have to try worm casting tea. Great stuff and is very easy to produce. I've been using it on seedlings this year and it's my best crop of seedlings yet. 5 hand fulls of castings will make 5 gallons of product. I dilute mine around 50 50. Most people will thin much more.

I’m loving seeing all of the raised beds. We’ve got three 4x8 beds planted. One has carrots and parsnips, one has cabbages and one has lettuce and chard. Everything is growing slowly so far but we added some fish emulsion the other day and that seemed to have helped.

Your transplants are thriving from your fertilized seed starting mix, unlike your direct seeding as your germination issues are a direct result of that store bought soil on the top layer of your beds. Jill Winger youtube channel documented with soil tests the terrible soil quality of this years soil bags after it killed her 150 tomato plants she planted in it.

@@LazyDogFarm that's the truth, seed saving is more complex than it may seem. Isolation of the best producer's is the only way to have healthy germination and less percentage of mutations and seedlings dying off. Gotta sort the seeds in a bucket of water and see which ones are underweight and paper thin. Even after all that if you don't have the proper Temps to store them then you end up having issues like that. Couple of my peppers were stunted and mutations but planted them anyways and the struggled all summer compared to seeds I dried and planted the following year.

container gardening (raised beds or pots) is inherently more difficult than in-ground gardening, even when it seeks to solve some problems of in-ground gardening. this is because the materials (mix) used is crucial to improvement or otherwise. as such, of paramount importance is infiltration and drainage ability. dont assume that just because it's physically higher, that a perched water level wont develop, or, that it will always easily absorb soil. i've gotten rid of my raised beds as i could not overcome these issues, and my inability to wet the raised beds, as i usually found at end of season, digging right in. I would highly recommend a soil-less mix of predominantly coir, being a material of good properties with respect to water, and not turning to carbon dioxide in one season. I found commercial and own made composts, mulches, and related materials, to have initially anecdotally benefit, only to see negative results down the track. Wood and straw based materials are the worst culprits, in my experience, in my climate. I got rid of raised beds, which were more trouble and expense than they were worth, in my situation. we had loads more rain than usual in our winter and spring. but my raised rows, despite being over-saturated, produced cool season crops well. in terms of costs and easy setup of irrigation, in-ground rows far surpass edged raised beds. i'm not going back there again, unless someone gives me a million dollars, for aesthetics.

The discs don't have anything to do with the dilution rate. The discs you use will depend on the amount of water being applied with your drip system. Look up the output rate on your drip tape/tubing and reference that little chart in the instruction booklet. That will tell you if you need to use a disc and which one you need to use.

Love the channel. Love the raised beds. However it does appear you lost 75% of your planting area. Im unsure why you need so much room between the beds? I guess for a wheelbarrel or a wagon or something? Since the area between the beds are mulched you dont need very large equipment to pass between the beds, I know its new. I know you can adjust. It really does look like a ton of wasted area though.

Drip irrigation is not good for germinating shallow seeds because the point of drip irrigation is for the water to go down not spread around. For carrots it’s better to overhead water then cover. I use an old compost bag weighed down with a piece of wood. Water sparingly because there is minimal evaporation. Then 2 days before the expected germination time you check underneath the bag daily, or remove entirely and water normally.
