  • Soil requirements: Carrots prefer loose, sandy loam soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 6.8. The soil should be well-drained and free of stones to allow the roots to grow straight and long.
  • Sunlight needs: Carrots require full sun, which means they need at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight per day.
  • Watering requirements: Carrots need consistent moisture, especially during germination and early growth. Water deeply once a week, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
  • Planting season: The best time to plant carrot seeds is in early spring, about 2 to 3 weeks before the last expected frost. In warmer climates, they can also be planted in late summer for a fall harvest.
  • Depth and spacing: Sow carrot seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 1 to 2 inches apart. Rows should be spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.
  • Germination time: Carrot seeds typically germinate in 10 to 21 days, depending on soil temperature and moisture conditions.
  • Maturity time: Carrots usually reach maturity in 70 to 80 days after planting, depending on the variety.
  • Harvesting time: The best time to harvest carrots is in the early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are cooler to prevent wilting.
  • Harvesting tips: Use a garden fork to gently lift the carrots from the soil to avoid breaking 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.
