Planting & Growing Tips for Danvers Half Long Carrots

• Planting Time: Sow your Danvers Half Long Carrot seeds in early spring, about 2 to 4 weeks before the last frost date, or in late summer for a fall harvest. They prefer cooler weather for optimal growth.
• Soil & Sun: Carrots thrive in well-drained, loose, and sandy soil. Ensure the soil is deep and free of rocks or clumps to allow for smooth root growth. Choose a sunny spot where the plants will receive at least 6 hours of sunlight per day.
• Spacing: Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep in rows spaced 12 to 18 inches apart. Thin seedlings to 2-3 inches apart to allow for proper root development.
• Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Carrots need regular watering, especially in the early stages, to develop strong, crisp roots.
• Harvesting: Harvest Danvers Half Long Carrots when they reach about 6 to 8 inches in length. Pull gently by the tops to avoid breaking the roots. Carrots are typically ready for harvest 75 days after planting.
