Planting Tips for Success
- Sunlight: Choose a location with full sun for strong tops and well-developed roots.
- Soil: Use loose, fertile, stone-free soil enriched with compost. Heavy or compacted soil can cause forked or misshapen roots.
- Planting Depth: Sow pelleted seeds about 1/4 inch deep in spring or fall, following local growing conditions.
- Spacing: Place seeds carefully and thin seedlings to about 4 inches apart so roots have room to size up.
- Watering: Keep the seedbed consistently moist during germination, then water deeply and evenly without leaving the soil waterlogged.
- Fertilizing: Feed moderately with compost or a balanced fertilizer. Avoid excessive nitrogen, which can encourage tops at the expense of roots.
- Harvest: Begin checking around 75 days, lifting carrots when they reach a useful size and their color is fully developed.
