Plant the seeds half an inch deep in sandy or heavy soil, as soon as it can be worked. The soil should have a pH level of approximately seven. You will want to leave four inches between the plants and nine to sixteen inches between rows. While growing, the crops will need one inch of water each week. After sixty eight days, the Chantenay Red Core carrots will be ready to be harvested. If you would like to make picking the roots easier, you can soak their bed with water when it’s time to harvest.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRead this \u003ca href=\"http:\/\/www.whfoods.com\/genpage.php?tname=foodspice\u0026amp;dbid=21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003e article\u003c\/a\u003e on the health benefits of Carrots.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c!--split--\u003e","brand":"Mountain Valley Seed Co.","offers":[{"title":"1 g Packet","offer_id":35361479393442,"sku":"48472","price":2.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":35361479426210,"sku":"31466","price":5.58,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"4 oz","offer_id":35361479458978,"sku":"31465","price":9.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 lb","offer_id":35361479491746,"sku":"31463","price":18.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"5 lb","offer_id":35361479524514,"sku":"31464","price":70.3,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0444\/6706\/0898\/products\/carrot-royal-chantenay-seed-wm_700.jpg?v=1595855840","url":"https:\/\/bestchoiceproducts13-com.myshopify.com\/products\/carrot-royal-chantenay","provider":"bestchoiceproducts13.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
