What you need to know to Plant & Grow
Carrots grow best in a deep, open, and well-cultivated garden soil.
Planting: Once soil temperature rises above 7.5°C, sow seeds about 7-15 mm deep in rows spaced 45-60 cm apart. As the seeds are quite small, mixing them with some sand when sowing can help with even distribution. For a continuous harvest, sow seeds at 5-day intervals over several weeks.
Care: Keep the seedbed evenly moist during the two-week germination period and avoid soil crusting, which can reduce the number of seedlings that emerge. Thin the seedlings during the early stages of growth until they are 5 cm apart. Keep the plants evenly watered, weed-free, and avoid high-nitrogen fertilizers. Harvest any time after the carrot roots develop good colour.
