| How To Grow | Sow thinly, 5mm (1/4”) deep in rows 30cm (1’) apart. Keep moist. Repeat every two weeks for continuous crops. Thin out to 10cm (4”) apart and water well to replace any soil dislodged from roots. Ensure all obstacles such as stones and pebbles are removed from the garden bed prior to sowing. Seedlings emerge 10-21 days. Soil should be lacking in nutrient; too much nutrients particularly nitrogen will result in forked carrots. |
