We tried something this past year with our green onions that an old timer told me to do. Between our tomato plants we planted a set of onions. And let me tell ya we didn’t have near the issue with bugs that we normally do. It may have been a one time thing but I’ll definitely be doing it again this coming spring.

I separated my shallots and have doubled the amount of plants already (I didn't buy them that long ago!). We ate our first one in with some squash from the garden last night and are happy with the taste. Since there is only the two of us, we were wasting the large onions we bought at the store because we just didn't get them eaten before they went bad. These shallots are just the right size and they multiply so fast that I don't see us ever needing to buy onions again.

For carrots, plant the Imperator variety. These are the kind that are in grocery stores and produce a very long, medium-width carrot that usually grows very straight as well. I would say twice as much overall carrot volume as other varieties and they just come out looking really nice as well. I think thinning is very important when they are at a size when you can tell the difference between carrot and weeds. This year, my onions grew to 3 times bigger than ever before and the only thing I did different this year was to just keep every weed out of the patch. Seemed to make all the difference.

Good luck on the thickly planted carrots in a container. I have found that too many in a container will shade each other out and results in a small harvest. Planting in rows is different as the space between rows allows more sunlight. I am looking forward to your results.

Wow Travis you're certainly the onion guru. My evergreen shallots, my brown bunching shallots and my Egyptian walking onions don't look anything like yours. I'm using the Argo thrive and have some good raised bed soil, so what am I doing wrong? I cut mine and separated them just as you showed and mine is taking forever to bounce back, they have just started putting on new leaves a few days ago. They sat there like a stump for what seemed like a month. I'm happy to see they are showing some new life but they should look like yours if you are only feeding Argo thrive.

I grow a lot of carrots. This fall I have planted out five 50ftx3ft beds of multiple varieties of carrots. For fertilizer I use a 4-12-4 mix from Miracle Grow called Quick Start. It is formulated for transplants to target root growth, and since I am growing carrots that is what I want. I've used multiple types of of fertilizers such as bone meal, feather meal, 10-10-10, etc. The best results come from the Quick Start solution. I recommend not using any type of fertilizer when you prepare the beds, aside from some compost, of which I only use Black Kow. I don't trust smaller distributers to have product that isn't tainted.
