START SEEDS DIRECTLY OUTDOORS
In spring, once danger of hard frost is past, sow seeds in full sun in a container of fresh potting soil. To have enough soil surface and volume, containers should be at least 16 to 18 inches in diameter and 8 to 12 inches deep. Sow seeds carefully 1/2 inch apart and then cover very lightly.
Keep the seedbed evenly moist as carrots can be slow to germinate, emerging over 10 to 20 days. Germinating carrots need consistent moisture; a good trick is to cover the soil surface with floating row cover to help retain moisture during the germination period and water right through it. Take off the cover as soon as you see sprouts.
GROWING NOTES
Thin carrots several times so seedlings are 2 inches apart and have room to size up for harvest. Keep well watered for best growth and flavor. For a late season crop, sow again 3 months before first expected frost.when plants are young. Mulch well to conserve soil moisture and suppress weed growth.
HARVEST AND USE
Harvest at about 1 to 1 1/2 inches in diameter for best flavor. Steam whole, then toss with butter and fresh chopped dill, parsley or chives. Or toss with butter, salt lightly and add a little brown sugar or maple syrup.
