How to Sow Seeds

Method: Sowing:Sow seeds directly in the garden at a depth of 5 mm, spacing rows about 25 cm apart.
Thinning: Care:Thin seedlings to 2-3 cm apart to prevent crowding and reduce the risk of pests like carrot fly.
Growing notes: Seeds should be spaced around 2 cm apart. Best sowing periods are spring, summer, or early autumn, with optimal soil temperatures of 10-30°C. Germination typically occurs in 14-21 days. Conditions:Carrots thrive in full sun and well-drained, loose soil free from stones. Avoid using freshly manured or high-nitrogen soil, as this can cause forking of the roots. Water regularly to keep the soil moist but ensure proper drainage to avoid root rot. Carrots are typically ready to harvest around 70 days after sowing. Climate:This variety adapts well to most Australian climates, including temperate and arid regions. Carrots can be harvested at various sizes depending on your preference, allowing for flexible cropping. Soil Type Prepare soil to be fine, well draining and crumbly.
