Planting & Care

Sow Speedo carrot seeds directly in the garden in early spring, about 2–4 weeks before the last frost date. Prepare a fine, loose seedbed free of rocks and clods to allow straight root development. Plant seeds 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 once they are 2 inches tall to give roots room to grow.

Water regularly to maintain even moisture, especially during dry spells. Mulch lightly to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Speedo carrots can be harvested young for baby carrots or left to mature for full-size roots. Avoid overwatering and ensure good drainage to prevent root rot.
