In my garden, that cardboard would just provide the perfect shelter for slugs ๐

I think it's really important to tell how often you watered. If you're away from home or your garden isn't in your backyard, covering your carrot seeds is the difference between some carrots or no carrots.

I've found that if soak the cardboard when you put it on top that really helps to increase germination by a good 15-20%.

Moisture variable was skewed by doing it in the same bed. Moisture from the covered side could still wick into the exposed parts of the bed. But the conclusion is still sound. By covering part of the bed you still made a better germination environment

It all depends on how heavy it's raining on the uncovered seeds. I've had whole batches left unviable after unexpected rain, but the covered ones have a way more stable start.

I couldnt get any carrots to germinate in my garden until i covered them. I used scrap wood, now i have tons of carrots growing

In the south this would definitely work. The key is the water. But if itโs as hot as it is in SC right now, you need something to help keep the seeds moist for more than 30 mins. Itโs evaporating and drying out that fast!

Cardboard absorbs moisture...try wood planks

Thanks for another experiment. I'm surprised at the results.

I just showed rainbow carrots in a 7 gallon grow bag and they germinated in 2 days! I put the grow bag in a kitchen trash bag to keep the moisture in and two days later I had little green sprouts!

Definitely keeps the birds from eating the seeds -

Whenever I donโt use a cardboard cover my germination rate and growth is trash.

It speeds up germination too. This spring I left my radish seeds uncovered and they took forever to germinate, with no actual yield at harvest time. For my fall crop, I did the cardboard trick, and I had healthy sprouts in three days.

If you are watering every day then the cardboard really isn't necessary. I think it's people who have growing spaces away from home who can't water daily or people who just forget to water who end up with poor germination.
I don't like cardboard because if you forget to check then the seedlings get too leggy really quickly. Water every day if possible but if you can't then it's better to cover with plastic sheet that lets the light through or try and shade the growing space temporarily. Also remember to water the dibbed holes or drills really well before sowing, wet the seeds before covering, and water once covered with soil.

Thanks for posting the results. When I do this with either cardboard or a plank of wood I donโt have to water the covered carrots as much as the uncovered ones. You said you watered them both each day but the real benefit to this method is time saving from less watering ๐

Definitely going to try this in a couple weeks after the garlic comes out because my soil doesnโt retain moisture nearly as well as yours would appear to based upon your preferred blend for your carrot bed.

I would say the cardboard tradition originated from people struggling with droughts.

That would have to be 2 containers to really be separate environments.

I do way longer rows and use 2x6. Cardboard is a great idea for smaller spaces

In other words, basically a negligible difference that could well be explained by margin of error. Thanks for posting the results!
