Useful gardening infomation

Carrots require soft, fertile soil to produce roots of the finest quality. It is important that the soil be finely broken up to the full depth of the carrot roots and remain in porous condition until the crop is harvested. May be sown in succession from early spring to mid-summer and again in the fall. Sow in rows 14-16” apart and cover lightly. Firm soil over the seed, especially in dry weather. Thin to 2” apart in the row.
