Care and cultivation advice

Direct sow outdoors when the soil is workable or in late autumn for early spring harvest. Make sure to water the soil well before sowing and to keep the sowing moist throughout the germination period. The variety thrives best in rich sandy soil, but reYellowar vegetable soil or planting soil works well too. It should be sown very thinly with a distance of 6-8 cm between each seed and avoid thinning later on if possible.

The variety can also be sown and harvested gradually throughout the season. It is important to remember that carrots should change location every year to avoid damage from insects and diseases.
