Specifications:

- Use: Outdoor Plants; these seeds are intended for cultivation in outdoor gardens, requiring ample sunlight and space to thrive.

- Durable: The seeds are viable and have a good germination rate if stored and planted according to the instructions.
- Relaxing: Gardening and growing plants can be a relaxing and rewarding hobby.
- Soil requirements: Cosmic Purple Carrots prefer loose, well-drained soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be free of rocks and debris to allow the roots to grow straight and long.
- Sunlight needs: These carrots require full sun, which means they need at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
- Watering requirements: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water deeply once or twice a week, depending on the weather and soil conditions. Avoid letting the soil dry out completely between waterings.
- Planting season: The best time to plant Cosmic Purple Carrot seeds is in early spring or late summer. In cooler climates, you can also plant them in early fall.
- Depth and spacing: Sow the seeds 1/4 inch deep and space them about 1-2 inches apart. Rows should be spaced 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper growth and air circulation.
- Germination time: Cosmic Purple Carrot seeds typically germinate in 10-20 days, depending on soil temperature and moisture levels.
- Maturity time: These carrots usually reach maturity in about 70-75 days after planting.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest is in the early morning or late afternoon when the temperatures are cooler. This helps to preserve the crispness and flavor of the carrots.
- Harvesting tips: Use a garden fork or spade to gently lift the carrots from the soil. Be careful not to damage the roots. After harvesting, remove the tops to prevent moisture loss and store the carrots in a cool, dark place. For long-term storage, keep them in a refrigerator or a root cellar.
