I've learned that a lot of your root crops (carrots, beets, potatoes, salsify, parsnips, etc.) can be left in the ground over winter, and harvested fresh, with a thick layer of mulch over them to protect them from freezing all throughout the winter months. This type of cold storage allows the starches, within the vegetables, to turn to sugar, making them sweeter when harvested.

@VegetableAcademy 3 месяца назад

True. This works in some regions, and we can pull this off with parsnips, but everything else freezes hard during our cold winters and turns to mush when it thaws in spring.

@@VegetableAcademy I've been doing the deep mulch system for over 5 years, here on the Cumberland plateau in central Tennessee. I recently watched a video by Derrick and Paula from Ontario, Canada who are now doing the same thing, with success. Their channel is "Back To Reality". As Derrick mentioned, a thicker layer of mulch would be better.

It’s essential to properly cure winter squash before storing. Don’t know the temps and time, but that’s an easy search. Ditto onions and garlic. They need to dry down. You have to do some prep and not just chuck things in storage. Also, varieties matter. Some squash and onion do better than others. In fact, some onions aren’t meant for storage at all. Another video?

Yep. Proper curing of some of these crops is important for the longest storage. I left those details out to keep things brief and stick to the theme of this video, but all of those details are included in Lesson 6.3 of my Seed to Table course. www.vegetableacademy.com/course

Unfortunately "room temperature" where I live in central California is significantly higher than your 60-70 F in your basement. Our daytime high can still reach 99F on October 31st. Also virtually everything here built since 1965 is on a slab foundation. The most recent house I've seen with a basement was built in the 1940s. Fun to see all you do though. 😊

I told you the temperatures at which we store these crops without refrigeration, but that doesn't mean they won't keep at warmer temperatures. For example, the sunflower shelf life study that I referenced tested their raw sunflower seeds at a storage temperature of 100ºF in bulk paper packaging and showed that they maintained their quality for 52 weeks. Don't count yourself out just because it's a bit warmer in your region.

I've been researching a way to hull those sunflowers too, here's hoping either one of us succeeds and shares! Great Video thanks!
