- Carrots prefer a deep, rich, well drained soil which does not contain fresh manure or compost. Sow seeds spring to mid summer in drills 1cm (½in) deep, spaced 30cm (12in) apart.
- As soon as the seedlings are large enough to handle, start thinning them out so that they are finally 1cm (4in) apart.
- The last thinnings should provide tender roots just large enough to be used. Harvest summer and autumn.
