If the Dutch can be attributed with growing the orange carrot then the French farmers can be hailed for growing the stubby, succulent, and round variety of the orange carrot which is normally long and tapering in its appearance. However, the round carrots are now popularly and commonly available and even grown in our very own country. The change in shape does not imply any change in their nutritious value or their health benefits. Carrots with their abundant beta-carotene, antioxidants and mineral treasures are considered a super-healthy food since the time they were first grown in Persia. Even today every child and adult is made to eat carrots for improving vision and general health. The health benefits of carrot are many more than that. Carrots can reduce risk of diabetes, cancer, and greatly improve the health of the skin and the immune system. So if you are still not convinced about adding this to your kitchen gardens, then let us also tell you that eating carrots can be extremely beneficial for reducing inflammations and healing wounds also.
So get the seeds, grow them, and harvest a healthy-hearty variety of these cute little round carrots!
Planting instructions
Carrot seeds should be planted 0.4 inches deep into the soil. This ensures that the seeds start germinating within 2-3 weeks. Make sure that each seed is planted at least 6 inches apart from each other.
Thin the plants to about 3 inches apart once the seedlings have grown a few leaves. Your carrot plants should get at least 3-4 hours of sunlight in a day.
Maintain a moderate watering schedule for carrots. Let the top 1cm of the soil layer dry up before watering again.
Growing Requirements
Pests & Diseases
Pests: Willow Carrot Aphid, Carrot Rust Fly, Carrot Weevil, Flea Beetle, Root-Knot Nematodes. Diseases: Alternaria Leaf Blight, Cercospora Leaf Blight, Cottony Rot, Downy Mildew, Powdery Mildew, Bacterial Leaf Blight, Soft Rot, Cavity Spot, Damping-off. Watering the plants in the morning helps to avoid fungal diseases. Companion plants significantly reduce incoming pests on your crops. Watering down the plants with a strong stream of water followed by an application of diluted neem or castor oil on the pest-affected parts of the plant will help to get rid of them.
soil
Sandy, well-drained loamy soil. Clear trash, rocks, and large pieces of tree bark from the soil. Maintain the pH level of the soil at 6.
spot
Partial sunlight; 3-4 hours of sunlight in a day.
Temperature
Carrots require an ideal germination temperature between 20°C to 30°C.
Watering
Moderate watering; allow the top 0.4 inch of soil to dry up before you water the plants again.
how to harvest
Carrots take about 2-3 months to mature completely. When the diameter of the carrot tops becomes 0.5 inch, that’s when you need to harvest the carrots.
Dig out an area of soil around the roots, grip the carrot firmly and pull it out. Do not pull out the fruit by holding onto the foliage. You may end up with just the leaves. Once you are done with the harvesting, collect all the carrots in a container and wash them thoroughly before consuming them.
After washing the carrots thoroughly, chop off the excess foliage from the carrot head and place them in a container filled with water. Keep this container in the refrigerator so that your carrots remain fresh and ready to use whenever you want.
