PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS
In full sun and well drained soil, sow 3 seeds per inch in the row. Cover seeds firmly with soil. When plants are 2 inches tall, thin to 2 inches apart in the row. For fresh carrots all season, plant every 3 weeks until 75 days before the first fall frost.
PLANTING INFO/DIRECTIONS
Too much water can cause carrots to crack. They should be kept weeded (a clean mulch can reduce this job). Also, lightly place soil over exposed roots to prevent cracking.
