Growing tips
Seeds cover with soil only thinly. Seedlings grow very slowly at first. Germination in 7-14 days at 10-20°C/50-68°F. If carrots are too dense after seed emergence, it is worth separating them to 3-5 cm/1.2-2 in, thus obtaining good carrot quality. Cover against carrot fly infestation with a special crop protection net. Carrots love the neighborhood of onions. Water regularly and let the soil dry in the meantime.
