Growing tips

For carrots, uniform moisture is important, especially during germination and later that they do not burst. Do not sow on freshly fertilized soil. Do not use manure. Singling partly necessary so that the plants can grow large. If sowing early, it is best to cover with a fleece/film. Crop protection net recommended especially in May because of pests. Keep weed free.
