Growing Carrots
Growing Carrots
- For a late spring/early summer harvest, it's best to plant carrots a few weeks prior to the last frost. To extend your carrot production, you can also grow them in the fall, just remember to harvest before the ground freezes.
- For optimal growth, ensure that there is a gap of 3 to 4 inches between each carrot when planting them. Select a location with abundant sunlight for the best results. It's worth noting that carrots can also tolerate partial shade, which can be advantageous in hotter climates.
- For optimal root development, mix compost or other organic matter into the soil when planting. Carrots require loamy, loose soil to thrive.
- After planting, make sure to water the plants right away. Then, give them 1 inch of water every week. As the roots develop and mature, increase the amount of water to 2 inches per week.
- Apply a layer of mulch such as chopped leaves or straw around the plants to prevent soil moisture loss.
- For optimal harvest, wait until you spot the shoulders emerging from the soil. While you can harvest carrots at any stage, it is recommended to collect spring-planted carrots before the soil warms up too much and fall carrots before the ground freezes.
- To maintain the quality of your carrots, it is recommended to store them either in the refrigerator or in a cool root cellar for a period of up to 2 months.
