Advice from our agronomist
When to sow. Sow from late April to early June, once the soil has warmed to at least 5–8 °C; for an earlier crop, sow in late October before winter. Seed tape is convenient: no thinning needed.
Sowing. Lay the tape in a furrow 1–2 cm deep, cover with light soil and water; furrow spacing 20–25 cm. Choose a sunny spot with light, stone-free soil.
Care. Water evenly – swings in moisture make roots crack; loosen between the rows and earth up exposed shoulders so they do not turn green. Fleece cover helps against carrot fly.
Feeding and harvest. Feed with a potassium-rich fertiliser and avoid excess nitrogen. Harvest in September – early October before hard frosts; store at 0–2 °C in damp sand or boxes.
