Growing Instructions

Dig or till the carrot bed when the soil is on the dry side to avoid making lumps.

Work the soil to a fine texture 15-25cm (4-6 in.) deep to allow the carrot roots to grow long and shapely.

Avoid freshly-manured soil, which may produce hairy, rough roots and will cause forks and splits;

Sow seed thinly in rows Mar Jul, 1cm (1/2 in.) deep, 23-30cm (9-12 in.)

between the rows as soon as the danger of hard frost has passed.

Try to get about 4 seeds per 2cm (1 in.).

Thin to 2in between carrots when large enough to handle.

Dispose of thinned seedlings to avoid attracting Carrot Fly.
