How To Grow And Harvest Carrots 🙂

https://off-grid.info/blog/how-to-grow-and-harvest-carrots/

Carrots thrive in cool temperatures so depending on your climate, it may be best to plant them during early spring or late fall. The ideal daytime temperature for carrots should be around 75ºF and night temperature should drop to 55ºF. When you grow carrots, the soil surface should be cleared of trash, rocks and large pieces of bark, so rake it thoroughly. You can leave smaller plant matter on the ground because this can help enrich the soil. The quality of the soil is a very important factor in successfully growing carrots; it should be sandy, well-drained loam. Heavy soils cause the carrots to mature slowly.
