When to Sow 'Flakkee' Carrot Seeds

April to July

Where to Sow

Sow carrot seeds thinly direct into the growing site 2cm (¾") deep in rows 30cm (12") apart. If possible, sow carefully so that thinning is not necessary. Aim for roots that will be 5-7cm (2-3") apart.

Carrot fly is attracted by the smell whilst thinning carrot seedlings. If you have to thin the seedlings, do so in the evening. Water before thinning and remove all the debris. Do not transplant. Young Carrots can always be pulled alternately to 'thin as you eat'.

Maturity

June to November.
