The Best for Sandy or Loamy Soils!
Early, sweet, and high-yielding!
66 days. The name says it all! These cylindrical roots are deep orange and very strong, stuffed with sweet flavor throughout their 6- to 8-inch length. The strong tops make harvest easier, too. But best of all is their great performance and very high yields in sandy or loamy soils, where many carrots do not flourish. Early to mature and very productive, 'Sweetness II Hybrid' is an economical and savory choice! Higher in vitamins A and B than their store-bought counterparts, home-grown carrots are also rich in calcium and phosphorus -- and they taste delicious! Carrots are a cool-weather crop, best sown direct as soon as the soil is workable in spring, or in late summer for fall harvest. Heavy soils are a problem for root development, so prepare the soil thoroughly before planting or, if you are in a clay soil area, consider growing in raised beds or even containers. Carrots also need moisture to keep from splitting. With these needs met, they are virtually trouble-free! Thin the seedlings to 3 inches apart. Harvest the roots as soon as you want, but certainly when they are less than 2 inches across; the smaller the tastier! Pkt is 200 seeds (1/32 oz.), which sows 20 feet of row.
