Deep Purple Carrot Seeds

25+ Seeds Per Pack 

Germination: 1–3 weeks

Germination Temperature: Optimum soil temperatures 60-65ºF.

Seed Sowing Depth: 1/4– 1/2" deep

Sowing Outdoors:  Sow from early spring to midsummer, 3/4–1" apart, , in a 2"-wide band (about 30 seeds/ft.), or single rows 16–24" apart. For minimum soil compaction, use raised beds with 2 or 3 rows 16–24" apart, beds 5–6' on center. 

Harvest: Carrots may be dug any time after they reach the desired size. Generally the best harvest period lasts about 3 weeks (longer in cool, fall weather), after which time the roots may crack or the taste and appearance may decline. Make a few sowings at 3-week intervals for a continuous supply of tender carrots at their prime.

Tips: Provide fertile soil, rich in organic matter from the very beginning of its growth in the garden. Give adequate, even moisture for the best growth. Mulching helps retain moisture.
