Mr Fothergill’s Carrot Extremo F1 Seeds

Description

Mr Fothergill’s Carrot Extremo F1 Seeds, High quality crops through the winter. If carrot fly is a problem, delay sowing until May. Keep well watered during dry spells, as this will prevent the roots from splitting. Remove soil and store in dry sand.

Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin by harvesting young carrots evenly from the row, allowing remainder to grow on. Water well until plants are established and during dry spells. Regular sowings made every three weeks will ensure a continuous supply. Roots can be harvested at any stage.
