Growing tips

Carrots love loose soils that are not prone to silting up. If the soil is heavy, it is better to grow them on ridges. As carrots take a long time to germinate, we recommend mixing the seeds with radishes. This way, the seed rows are marked and the carrots are automatically thinned out when the faster radishes are harvested. Carrots that are sown too densely must be thinned out.
