- Fall: For a fall harvest, sow seeds in the summer, around 10-12 weeks before the first frost date.
Planting Details
- Depth: Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in loose, well-draining soil.
- Spacing: Space seeds 2 inches apart in rows 12-18 inches apart for proper root development.
- Light: Full sun is ideal for carrot growth, though partial shade can be tolerated during the warmer months.
- Soil: Prefers loose, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. Ensure the soil is deep enough to allow for long, straight roots.
Watering and Care
- Water Needs: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination. Once established, water deeply but infrequently to encourage deep root growth.
- Thinning: Thin seedlings to 2-3 inches apart once they have a few true leaves, ensuring ample space for each root to grow.
- Mulching: Apply mulch to keep the soil cool, retain moisture, and suppress weeds.
- Fertilizing: Use a balanced fertilizer or compost to promote healthy growth, particularly if your soil is lacking in nutrients.
