Do you need to blanch celeriac?
Celery starts are nowhere to be had in my area. I grow from seed no problem. Just drop the seeds in a well lit room and thin when transplant. A good moisture regulating soil mix is great. If you grow in good compost like he says, it takes care of the ph issue. I have clay soil, so I dig a hole like I do for tomatoes and fill with compost and plant in that. Consistent water is important. I had no need to blanch my celery if I water CONSISTENTLY.
I wish my soil was loose enough to make the holes with my hand
Would the full sun still apply in the tropics?
Up here, we put the 2 L milk cartons around the plant once it gets bigger. We cut off the top of the carton and bottom off, so the carton can be placed over the celery plant with the tops sticking up out the top, and then it grows beautiful big tops and huge stalks that are protected from the sun by the milk carton, and when you harvest them, you have to pull them out of the carton or just cut the carton off it and it always fills the carton with its stalks. It get HUGE inside there. Wild celery grows in boggy areas, and we have found if you want your celery to not be woody, they need more water than suggested here. Not boggy, but they are very thirsty vegetables, and if they don't get enough the stalks will be woody, tough, and sinewy.
The garden centers around here don't sell baby celeries.
I want to see a video about how to grow celeriac root 🙂
Thanks..now i know the problem of my celery…
@1:05 … lol me yesterday thinning out 20 plants from 1 cell haha Thank god, some other gardener showed a good video how to do it by submerging them in water. Shake shake shake and very gentle, and lots of patience
Dwight Shrute from the office brought me here.
Thanks for this! I'm growing celery for the first time and wondered why people recommended using cardboard milk cartons after blanching for celery. Now I know. Thanks!
I got some celery root at the store. Can that grow to a plant?
Thank you so much! My first year with celery and I’m clueless! This was so helpful!
We’re going to try growing from plants
What time a year need to plant celery, and how long it takes to grow.
Ummmm idk about anyone else but I find the whiter the celery, the worse it tastes. When it’s a rich green colour it’s the best
What was under the trampoline?
Chives growing guides
how do you grow peach trees?
I've heard tubing the plant, in mid growth, also helps with harvesting. Is that true?
Loose soil good, loose woman bad
Thanks gonna try it
I have 5 celery plants in 5 3 1/2 gallon buckets I bought last year. They are doing great. One went to seed.
I'm making my first attempt at celery this year (I'm in middle TN). I'm going to try growing it in a big pot on the patio so I can move it around to follow the sun. I haven't been able to find "starts" so I'm just going to have to try this from seed. But thanks for the tip on blanching! That was great information!
