GROWING TIPS

Carrots can tolerate a light frost, so sow directly outdoors 3-5 weeks before the last spring frost date; or in mid to late summer for a fall harvest. (Transplanting from indoors can cause carrots to be weak and crooked.) Plant seeds 1/2" deep in loose, sandy soil with a pH of approximately 5.5-6.8. Distribute seeds evenly, 2 inches apart in rows 12-14 inches apart, so plants don’t grow together. Keep the soil moist with frequent, shallow waterings. Harvest carrots early for “baby carrots” or when fully mature after about 70 days.

Clever Carrots: When carrots near maturity, about 6-8 inches, frosts encourage them to start storing sugars for future use so their taste improves!

Stubby, Twisted Carrots? If your carrots are short, twisted or balled the soil was likely too dense for them to push through. 

Help Your Plants Thrive with Weed Control: Weeds compete with vegetables, flowers and other plants for water, space and nutrients. Give your plants their best life by keeping weeds under control with Organic Weed Barrier Paper, mulch or careful weeding.

Companion Planting: Rosemary & sage deter carrot flies; making them great companion plants for carrots!
