Little garden

Today we are learning about planting and I'm growing  carrots. This is a few tips I learnt.

.The sprouting time is 6-21 days

. It takes 60-80 days to harvest the carrots

.You have to keep the carrots in the right sort of room temperature until they start sprouting.

.Once they have spouted plant them in a bigger pot or the garden. Make sure to put lots of soil over it.  
This is how I planted my seeds.

I put it in a plate and put water over it but not to much or it will drown.  Next I mushed it up and scooped it into the pot.  Last but not least I put the seedlings into the soil and put more dirt over that too.  What I like about planting is getting to see how they grow.  Make sure you put it in a bigger pot when it starts to grow.  
It's going to take  awhile to grow but the holidays are coming up.  I can't wait to plant in the garden soon!

  1. You have done a great job of describing what you had to do to plant your seeds Emalea. I like the words 'mushed' and 'scooped'. They explain to me exactly what you must have done. Do you think your carrots will be ready in time for Christmas dinner?
