Sow Parisian Carrot seeds directly outdoors in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-20 days. Thin seedlings to 2-3 inches apart to allow roots to develop properly.

Keep the area weed-free and water regularly, especially during dry spells. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest when roots are about 1-2 inches in diameter for best flavor and texture.
