Growing Instructions for Carrots - Scarlet Nantes

<div class="ExternalClass683481D5019B4D949BC9ECC041A1979B"><h2>Planting<br></h2><h4>Choose a location with full sun exposure and well-drained, loose soil. Incorporate plenty of organic matter (compost, aged manure) into the soil before planting. Work the soil to a fine texture to a depth of at least 12 inches to prevent forked roots. Avoid freshly manured soil as it can cause misshapen roots. Plant Scarlet Nantes carrots in Arizona from late February/early March through late summer/early fall (mid-September through March). Sow seeds 1/4 inch deep. Sow seeds 1 inch apart in rows 12-18 inches apart. </h4><h4>Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination. Water deeply (6-8 inches) once or twice a week, depending on weather conditions. Avoid overwatering, as soggy soil can lead to root rot. Carrots need full sun (6-8 hours). </h4><h2> Harvest<br></h2><h4>Harvest carrots when they reach the desired size, typically 2-3 weeks after they reach maturity.<br></h4><p><br></p></div>
