Planting Instructions

  1. Timing: Start sowing carrot seeds outdoors in early spring, 2-3 weeks before the last frost date, or in late summer for a fall harvest.
  2. Soil Preparation: Choose loose, well-draining soil with good fertility. Remove stones and debris that could hinder root growth.
  3. Sowing Depth: Plant carrot seeds about 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep in rows spaced 12-18 inches apart. Keep the soil evenly moist until germination.
  4. Sunlight: Carrots prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade, especially in hot climates.
  5. Thinning: Once seedlings emerge, thin them to about 2-3 inches apart to allow room for the carrots to develop fully.

Growing and Care

  • Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during the germination period and dry spells. Avoid overwatering to prevent rot.
  • Mulching: Apply a layer of organic mulch to retain soil moisture and suppress weed growth around the carrot plants.
  • Fertilization: Use a balanced organic fertilizer or compost before planting to provide essential nutrients for healthy carrot growth.
  • Pest and Disease Management: Monitor for pests like carrot rust flies and practice crop rotation to minimize disease risks.

Harvesting

  • Timing: Carrots are typically ready for harvest 60-80 days after planting, depending on the variety. Harvest when the roots reach the desired size and color.
  • Method: Gently loosen the soil around the carrots with a garden fork or trowel. Carefully lift the carrots from the ground, avoiding damage to the roots.
