Beetroot and Carrot : 14-Jun-2015

Winter has started in Perth and I wanted to plant something in the garden 'NOW' :)

Looked at internet and as per the below links, it says you can plant Beetroot at any time and Carrot in any month except Jun,July,August.

But I don't want to wait, so I decided to plant both. Went to Bunnings and bought Beetroot and Carrot seedlings.

Carrot Seedlings

I have a small veggie garden in my front yard. Beetroots and Carrot grow better in a Sandy soil than Hard Soil. What I have done is , just dug almost 10-15cm and then mixed the sand with some Cow Manure  (which I bought last year this time) and then raised the sand almost 5cm from the ground. Then I planted the seedlings on top of that. 


Will update the blog with the latest photos every month till harvesting :).

Not much growth yet, so no point in  posting the photos. Will post the photos after a month.
