Mr Fothergills Carrot Amsterdam 2 Solo 1500 Seeds

Carrot - Amsterdam 2 Solo

This is an early carrot with long, smooth roots and a very good, sweet flavour. It is versatile, and will produce some of the first finger carrots of the season but you can enjoy it right through until October.

Sow outdoors thinly, from January to July, where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-drained soil, which has already been watered. Allow 30cm between rows. Alternatively, sow thinly, directly into fertile compost in 25cm pots with drainage holes. Early sowings may benefit cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin by harvesting young carrots evenly, allowing remainder to grow on. In pots, harvest when roots are approx. 10cm long. Water well until plants are established. Harvest from April to October.
