Product Details: Genus: Daucus Species: Daucus carota (Solar Yellow / Golden Heirloom variety) Hardiness Zone: USDA Zones 4 – 11 (Biennial; hardy to light frosts). Days to Maturity: 65 - 70 days. Days to Germination: 7 to 14 days (Optimal soil temp: 55°F - 75°F). Seeding Depth: ¼ inch (0.6 cm). Row Spacing: 12 - 18 inches (30 - 45 cm). Plant Height: Foliage grows 12 – 18 inches (30-45 cm) tall; roots are 6 – 8 inches (15-20 cm) long. Growth Habit: Upright, feathery green foliage with a deep taproot that swells into a smooth, cylindrical, brilliant yellow root vegetable.. Soil Preference: Deep, loose, sandy-loam, well-draining soil, free of stones. High in organic matter. pH 5.8 – 6.8. Temperature Preference: Cool weather. Best performance at 55°F - 70°F (12°C - 21°C). Light Preference: Full Sun (minimum 6 hours of direct sunlight). How to Plant & Grow: Site Preparation : Carrots require deep, loose, and rock-free soil. Work the soil at least 10–12 inches (25-30 cm) deep, remove all stones, and mix in 2-3 inches of well-aged compost. Sowing: Direct sow seeds outdoors in early spring (2-3 weeks before the last frost) or in late summer for a great fall crop. Plant seeds ¼ inch (0.6 cm) deep and cover lightly with fine soil. Keep the seedbed consistently moist until germination (7-14 days). Tip: Mix seeds with a little fine sand for more even spacing. Spacing: For Straight, Uniform Roots: After seedlings emerge, thin them to 2 to 3 inches (5-7 cm) apart in rows spaced 12 to 18 inches (30-45 cm) apart. Square Foot Gardening (SFG): Plant 12 to 16 carrots per 1-square-foot area. Watering: Consistent moisture is the secret to sweet carrots! Provide 1 inch of water per week. Fluctuating moisture will cause the roots to split. Harvesting: The bright yellow "shoulders" will start to peek out of the soil when ready (usually 65-70 days). Gently loosen the soil with a garden fork, grasp the base of the foliage, and pull straight up. Gardener's Tip: Because yellow carrots have exceptionally delicate skin, harvest them carefully to avoid scratching the surface. A thick layer of straw mulch around the plants will keep the soil cool and help produce an even sweeter harvest. Planting Calendar: Early Spring Crop: Direct Sow: Early March to Mid-April. Harvest: June to July. Fall Crop (Sweeter, Better Quality): Direct Sow: Mid-July to Early August. Harvest: October to November. Mild Winter Zones (USDA 9-11): Can be sown from October to January.
