Description

Be sure to check out our Carrot Growing Guide to learn more about how to successfully grow carrots at home.

Envy Carrot is a hybrid carrot variety that is widely-adaptable and performs well even in clay or muck soils. Most carrot varieties will tend to be shorter in harder soils, but not this one. This imperator-type carrot is bright-orange and averages 10-12" long. It is an early-maturing variety with strong, medium-sized tops for easy harvesting. Carrots can be harvested at their maturity date for medium to large-sized carrots, or allowed a few more weeks for jumbo carrots. This is a great variety for fresh-eating or preserving via canning or freezing.

Carrots grow best when planted during the cooler times of the year in early spring or fall. Carrots prefer a soil temperature around 75 degrees for optimal germination. They will perform best when direct seeded and are not a good crop to transplant. Carrots require constant, adequate moisture throughout the germination process. If you are not able to water them frequently, you might consider using a tarp or covering on the soil to keep it moist until Seeds germinate.

We recommend seeding carrots in a thick band along the desired row. This will ensure a solid stand of carrots and help to aid in weed control once tops get larger. Carrots are a great crop for double-row planting on drip irrigation. For this strategy, plant two rows 6″ apart, skip about 3′, then plant another two rows 6″ apart. The double row technique allows for easy weed control because the tops shade the area between the double rows. It also allows you to maximize the garden space because you can get two rows of harvest for almost the same amount of space as one row.

The seeds look really good. I will not be planting them until a bit later in season. Can't wait to see how they grow.
