Planting & Care

Sow Scarlet Nantes carrot seeds directly in the garden in early spring or late summer for a fall crop. Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep in loose, well-drained soil, spacing them 2-3 inches apart. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs in 10-20 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow proper root development.

Carrots require even moisture and loose soil to grow straight, tender roots. Avoid overwatering or allowing the soil to dry out completely. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest when roots reach desired size, usually 65-75 days after planting.
