Parsnips, perhaps?

My mother used milk cartons seedling carrots.

They are very practical: 

you have them on hand easily 

and they have enough height and the best 

- as they are made to keep liquid inside, 

they don't make mess in action.

I haven't never tried to pre-grow carrots, 

but now I decided to do it. 

Or maybe I could keep them in whole summer, 

so arbustorum won't eat them?

So I washed few milk cartons.

And cut the tops open.

Because they are not looking very nice, 

I decided to cover them with gift wrapping paper:

This is a craft I can handle:

At first I might cover that white long box, too, 

but was too lazy to do it...

Here they are, all 8 of them:

Next step was naturally sowing.

Ok, 8.

Is there any idea to grow 8 carrots?

So I took parsnips seeds instead:

On the bottom I put first some gravel and then soil.

And up there one seed in each carton:

I know it is always said 

"put two and then take weaker away" 

- but I have a huge problem to winkle anything growing...

And by the window of living-room they hopeful will grow:

Last summer the only growing one was in front yard...

the wild one.
