Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of at least 8-10 inches and removing stones or clumps. Plant seeds 1\/4 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination. Thin seedlings to 2-3 inches apart to allow proper root development.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWater regularly, providing about 1 inch of water per week. Mulch to retain moisture and suppress weeds. Avoid over-fertilizing with nitrogen, as this can cause forked or hairy roots. Harvest when roots reach desired size, typically 75-80 days after sowing. Tendersweet Carrots store well in cool, humid conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 Seeds.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67664773087368,"sku":"BOTAN4-005","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0717\/4648\/6408\/files\/il_fullxfull.7580840776_7eqb_a85df059-52ca-41d2-bdf0-8151ca24f275.jpg?v=1791898858","url":"https:\/\/www.natesgardensupply.com\/products\/500-seeds-tendersweet-carrot-heirloom-long-carrot-for-juicing-fresh-eating","provider":"Nate's Garden Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
