WHEN TO SOW
March to June.
WHERE TO SOW
Sow thinly direct into the growing site 2cm deep in rows 30cm apart. If possible sow carefully so that thinning is not necessary.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
If you have to thin the seedlings, do so in the evening. Water before thinning and remove all debris. Do not transplant. Aim for roots 4-6cm apart. Young carrots can be pulled alternately to ìthin as you eatî.
MATURITY
August onwards.
HANDY TIP
Hand weed to remove weeds. As the foliage increase it should deter weed growth and not be necessary to use a hoe.
