Planting Instructions: Soil Preparation and Fertilizing: Carrots are a cool-season crop and don’t do as well in hot summer months. Carrots like loose, well-drained soil to allow the roots to expand easily. If the soil is full of rocks and clods, the roots can become misshapen. To prepare the soil, clear the area of rocks, trash, and large sticks. Small pieces of grass and leaves can be mixed into the soil to make it richer. Spade the soil 8-12 inches deep and completely cover plant material. You may optionally scatter 1 cup of a complete fertilizer on the soil for each 10 feet of row to be planted. Rake the soil until it is smooth and work the beds into 4-6 raised ridges to allow soil to drain and let air enter soil. Space the ridges 8-12 inches apart from center to center or further apart if carrots are to be followed by a summer crop. You plant 2 or more rows of carrots on each ridge. Planting: Plant seeds as soon as the soil can be worked in the Spring and soil temperature reaches about 45F. For a Fall crop, plant in mid-to-late Summer for a harvest before the first frost. Use a hoe handle or stick to make a 1/2 inch furrow deep down the center of the ridge. Plant 2-3 seeds in the furrows spaced 3 inches apart within the rows. Cover lightly with loose soil then sprinkle with water. You may cover with a thing layer of fine compost or potting mix to help retain moisture. Planting Depth: 1/2 inch Within-Row Spacing: 3 inch Between-Row Spacing: 12 inches Care During the Season: Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period, as carrots are sensitive to drying out during this period. Water the plants well weekly if it does not rain. Weeding: Keep the carrots free of weeds, which rob weak root systems of nutrients and moisture. Insecticides: Insecticides may be used to protect plants. Before using a pesticide, please read the label and always follow cautions, warnings and directions. Diseases: Check plants daily and treat with an approved fungicide if disease do appear. Neem oil, sulfur, and other fungicides are available for use. Please always follow label directions. Harvesting: Wash and taste-test carrots to determine if they are sweet, crisp, and flavorful to help determine when to harvest. Carrots are often harvested when they reach a mature size of 6-8 inches in length or when they reach 3-4 inches for baby snacking carrots. Though, carrots can be left to grow larger if desired. Harvest carrots by pulling from the tops until the roots separate from the soil.
