Carrot Extremo F1 Seeds from Mr Fothergill's Seeds and Plants.
High quality crops grow over winter.
Carrot Extremo F1 is a high quality Nantes x Kuroda hybrid variety with excellent flavoured roots with resistance to splitting. A good source of vitamin A and antioxidants.
Easily sown direct in the garden. Sow little and often for a continuous crop.
Sow & Grow:
Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½”) deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm (1’) between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection.
Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin by harvesting young carrots evenly from the row, allowing remainder to grow on. Water well until plants are established.
Regular sowings made every three weeks will ensure a continuous supply of young roots.
Hints & Tips:
If carrot fly is a problem, delay sowing until May. Keep well watered during dry spells.
