 How to Grow Red Carrot from Seed

Choosing the Right Time:

– Carrots are cool-weather crops best sown directly in early spring or late fall. 

– Since they do not transplant well, it’s recommended to directly sow them.

Sowing the Seeds:

1. Soil Preparation: Plant 2-3 red carrot seeds ¼” deep and 1-2″ apart.
2. Soil Conditions: Ensure the soil is loose, well-tilled, well-drained, sandy, and has few rocks to allow the roots to grow long.
3. Sunlight: Select a location with full sun exposure.
4. Seed Germination: Seeds germinate in 14-21 days.
5. Thinning: Once true leaves establish, thin the seedlings to 1 plant every 2″.

Soil pH and Fertilization:

– Aim for a pH level between 6.0-7.0.

– Avoid nitrogen-rich fertilizers, which may cause growth abnormalities.

Caring for Red Carrots:

– Maintain loose soil for easy root growth.

– Sow seeds directly outside in the spring.
