Late, high-yielding variety of the "Nantes" type.
Vegetation period: 140-150 days. Root crops are of medium size, 18-22 cm long, cylindrical, orange in color, resistant to cracking.
This variety is valued for its high sugar and carotene content. Perfectly suitable for making juices, canning, freezing, and winter storage.
Pre-winter sowing is possible to obtain earlier shoots. 1 gram contains approximately 800-1400 seeds.
Best predecessors for carrots: tomatoes, cucumbers, potatoes, onions, legumes.
Care: after emergence, care consists of weeding, deep loosening, watering, and top dressing. Carrots are thinned 2 weeks after emergence. The second thinning is when the root diameter is 1 cm, leaving 5-6 cm between plants.
Carrot is a cold-resistant crop. Placed on light loamy and sandy loam soils. Sown from late April to early June. To obtain earlier shoots, pre-winter sowing is carried out in late October. Seeding depth — 1-2 cm depending on the soil type. Seeds begin to germinate at a temperature of +3+4 °C. It is important to keep the soil moist.
The first thinning is in the phase of the first pair of true leaves, the second — in the phase of bunching maturity. The optimal temperature for the growth and formation of root crops is +20+22 °C. Watering and loosening — as needed. Harvesting of root crops is from September to October.
