Biennial plant. Outdoor sowing in summer. Loves sunny locations and loamy soil.
How to plant and grow wild carrots
- Seedtime: From January, it can be sown in the hotbed and from March outdoors
- Sowing depth: 1-2.5cm
- Ideal germination temperature: From +3°C
- Germination duration: Carrots need very long, 21-27 days on average. That's why it's recommended to mix the seeds with either radish seeds or dill seeds. Both germinates clearly faster and marks a row so that the care of the sowing gets easier. By harvesting the radish that is ripe earlier, the rows are pruned automatically. The dill should also be removed when it has reached a height of approx. 25cm.
- Row spacing: 30-45cm
- Planting distance: 3-5cm
- Location: Sunny
- Soil: Sandy-loamy, deep, loose, and stone-free soil. This variety prospers very well in loamy soils.
- Care: Carrots are moderate feeders and don't tolerate fresh dung. Only use ripe compost for fertilizing. Carrots like to be kept moist and often need supplementary irrigation on sandy soils during the hot summer months. Weeding out is crucial while the plant is still young as the tender plantlets are overrun with weeds fast. For good results, the soil should be loosened regularly. Especially after strong rain when it tends to clog.
- Harvest: Most often from May to July. There's no clear sign of maturity.
- Family: Umbellifers (Apiaceae)
