How to Grow Carrot Early Nantes Organic Seeds

Thin seedlings carefully as they develop, leaving enough space for the roots to mature properly.

Grow in a sunny position with fertile, well-drained soil and water regularly during dry periods to encourage even root development.

Harvest from early summer through autumn once the roots have reached the desired size.

Direct sow where the crop is to grow, as carrots dislike transplanting.
