Planting Instructions

Planting Season

• Spring: Sow Parisian carrot seeds in early spring, once the soil temperature reaches around 50°F (10°C). For a fall harvest, sow seeds in late summer.

Planting Details

• Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in loose, well-draining soil for optimal root development.
• Spacing: Space seeds 1-2 inches apart in rows 6-8 inches apart to give the small round carrots room to grow.
• Light: Full sun is ideal for best growth, but partial shade can also work, especially in warmer climates.
• Soil: Prefers well-draining, loamy soil that’s free of large stones, which could hinder the development of these small, round carrots.

Watering and Care

• Water Needs: Keep soil consistently moist during germination and the early growing stages. Once established, water deeply and less frequently to prevent waterlogging.
• Thinning: Thin seedlings to 2 inches apart to ensure proper root formation and healthy growth.
• Mulching: Mulch around the carrots to retain moisture and suppress weeds.
• Fertilizing: Light feeding with a balanced fertilizer or compost will encourage strong growth without overwhelming the plants.

Harvesting

• When to Harvest: Parisian carrots are ready to harvest in about 55-60 days, when they reach a diameter of about 2 inches. Harvest earlier for smaller, sweeter carrots.
• How to Harvest: Gently loosen the soil with a garden fork or trowel and pull the carrots from the soil carefully to avoid damaging them.
• Storage: These carrots can be stored in the refrigerator for up to several weeks. They can also be frozen or pickled for longer storage.
