CARE INFORMATION

Top Tips

Prepare the soil in advance of sowing to remove stones and produce a deep, fine soil texture.
Do not add manure to the soil as this will cause the roots to fork.
Keep well-watered during dry spells as this will help prevent the roots from splitting.
Young roots can be pulled early to enjoy eating young and raw such as in salads, or lightly steamed or roasted.

Care Guide

How to grow

Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm (�in) deep, directly into finely prepared soil that has already been watered. Allow 30cm (12in) 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.
Regular sowings made every 3 weeks will ensure a continuous supply of young roots.
Roots can be lifted in autumn. Remove soil and store in dry sand for use during winter.
