Carrot is a very useful and nutritious root. It is used everywhere in the preparation of various dishes and culinary sings, as well as juices. In addition, the carrots contain a large number of trace elements and vitamins (the same carotene). It is especially useful for the growth and development of children.

To raise a rich harvest of beautiful and even carrots, you need to know when and how to sow seeds into the ground, as well as how to competently care for shoots.

Next, you will be presented with all the detailed information on the planting of the carrot in the spring, namely: seed processing methods, seed processing methods, selection of place and preparation of the garden and, of course, the right seeding, as well as many other useful nuances of growing orange root root.

Landing carrot seeds are required directly into open ground.

From seedlings, carrots do not grow! If you pre-sow seeds of carrots in a seedy cups, and then planted into the ground, then you are guaranteed to damage the young root crops and they will grow curves.

As a rule, carrots sow in the spring, although it is allowed and very welcome.

When to plant carrots in the open soil in spring?

Each gardener has its own experience and is guided by the accumulated knowledge, choosing the optimal duration of planting carrots in spring. Some adhere to the recommendations for sowing, which gives a producer of a variety (on a pack), others track favorable days on the lunar calendar. But best, choosing when planting carrots in the open soil in spring, orient on weather conditions of that climatic zonein which your cottage or garden is located.

Carrots are not afraid of small spring return freezers, so if you sow it early in spring and a decrease in temperature will happenShe will be able to transfer a slight cooling (up to - 3 degrees). However, such root plates are most likely not going to long storage, because low temperatures will lead to the growth of flower arrows and will noticeably reduce its burning.

Important! There is no need for a long period to withstand carrot seeds in the ground, putting them very early. Seedlings have a property to work, bent or not germinate in such conditions.

Minimum temperature for germination and sowing of carrot seeds in open ground - +4 .. + 6 degrees (or a little less, but the seeds will go out only when the soil warms up to these values), but it is better to sow at +10 degrees (so faster).

Depending on the region and climate

To select the optimal seeding of the seeding of carrots in spring in various regions, it is recommended to focus on weather conditions (climatic features).

Thus, in the south of Russia, the orange root root sow to the ground significantly earlier than in the middle lane (Moscow region), the North-West (Leningrad region) and especially in the Urals and in Siberia.

For example, sowing carrots in open ground in the south of Russia carried out almost immediately after the snow comes down, that is, already in the second half of March-early April.

By the way! To obtain the earliest harvest, the carrots are planted in autumn under winter or early spring (in April). But for the purpose of long-term storage, this is done usually later, i.e. Somewhere in May-early June.

In the middle lane (Moscow region) Sowing recommended in late April-early May.

In the Urals and Siberia Perform work on the crop of carrots follows Not earlier May. At about the same time, carrots are imprisoned and in the northwest (in the Leningrad region).

Interesting! Many dackets recommend not to hurry with early sowing of carrots, but to move it for June, in this case you will save your harvest from carrot flour, because By the beginning of the summer, carrot fly will fly away. In addition, carrots for the set of edible mass of the root of the root summer heat is not very suitable, but the autumn coolness is the most.

On the lunar calendar in 2020

The lunar calendar will help you decide when to plant carrots in the spring, in which month.

According to the lunar calendar, in 2020 for the sowing of carrots the following days are ideal:

  • in March - 8, 10, 16-19;
  • in April - 5-7, 9-15, 17-22, 27-30;
  • in May - 2-6, 9, 11, 12, 20-22, 29-31;
  • in June - 7-9, 11-14.

In addition to the most beneficial days, there are adverse dates on the lunar calendar when the landing work is extremely undesirable - these days New Moon and Full Moon, as well as the period when the moon in aquare, because This is a preventive and dry sign - allocated in italics.

So, unfavorable days, on the lunar calendar,for landing of carrots in 2020, the following dates are:

  • in March - 9, 19-21 , 24;
  • in April - 8, 15-17 , 23;
  • in May - 7, 13-14 , 22;
  • in June - 5, 9-11 , 21.

According to the lunar calendar, from the "1000 Soviets of the Soviet".

After which crops it is better to plant carrots

As you know, preceding cultures play an important role when choosing a site for planting any vegetables (of course, except because carrots can be planted after all types of siturates).

So after which (what crops) is best to plant carrots?

There is a sufficient amount of vegetable crops, after which the site is most favorable for redheads, namely this:

  • tomatoes;
  • potatoes;
  • pumpkin;
  • zucchini;
  • cucumber;
  • cabbage white and colored;
  • garlic.

Important!Carrot should not be planted only aftercelery and Pasternak, as well as dill and parsley. And, of course, after the carrot itself. Those. After umbrella crops.

Joint landing

Carrots are very often grown on one bed with other cultures. So, it is often planted with parsley, radish, peas, leaf salad.

Especially often, the carrots land together with the bow-spit or pieve.

For example, you can alternate the rows of carrots and onions or, as an option, land onions around the perimeter carrot bed.

Thus, the onions and carrots are ideal mutually beneficial neighbors: the bow scares the carrot fly, and the carrot in turn - onion mum (this is in theory, in practice everything is not so happy).

But! You should not put them ahead or too close to each other, because the bow is growing much faster and can simply put the carrot. In addition, it will be very uncomfortable to cut forward. And the carrot requires much more frequent irrigation than bow.

Video: Joint Look and Carrot

Similar to bows, similar to the scare effect possess marigoldthat you can also land around the perimeter of the bed.

Interesting! Sometimes carrots and radish Sit together, mixing seeds. Thus, after you pull out and eat all the Redis, there will be enough space between shoots, and therefore you do not have to cut forward carrots.

How to plant carrots seeds in open ground

To properly plant carrots in the open soil seeds, it is recommended to familiarize yourself with important information on the preparation of seeds and with the quality of soil quality. You need to know how to sow seeding the seeds of carrots in the spring, so that they quickly and well rose. And also perform the necessary conditions for landing, shelting seeds and care after sowing.

Preparation of seeds

Seeds of carrots are rightly considered one of the most tug-free (like all other umbrella cultures, to which carrots belong to), which means they require mandatory pre-sowing processing (soaking).

Select room for bed

First you need to choose optimal place To accommodate carrot beds in the garden. As you know, carrots are sunny vegetable, so it should be planted only in open areasSo that it spent the whole day under the sunny rays.

Even a small shading noticeably delays the growth of rootpodes, and in the end they are formed small.

In general, ideally, if it is a warm (high) bed.

Orange root root will feel better on lungs and loose Soils. Ideal if it is an echoed and fertile suglinted, Supoy or Peat. As for her aciditythen she should be Neutral or weakness(6.3-7.5 pH).

Note! If a soil will be too dense, then carrots can grow.

Preparation of Grokery

For spring sowing of carrots follows in advance, desirable another autumn, prepare Groke.

During the preparation of the intended site, it is necessary to switch the Grocery (on the bayonet shovel \u003d 25 cm) and make more horing and overworked compost(1 bucket per 1 sq. M), as well as and bone flour. If you admit the use of mineral fertilizers, then instead of ash and bone flour can be made and sulfate potassium (Potassium sulfate).

If you have a very heavy soil, then be sure to also make about 1/2 bucket of river sand and peat (for 1 sq.m. beds).

During the preparation of the garden, it is necessary remove all weeds and carefully choose all major pebbles.

As you know, carrots not tolerate fresh manure And lime.

Note! If you sow carrots to bed before this fertilized fresh manure (even in the fall), the root crops can grow.

And already in the spring, a couple of weeks before seeding in the groundIf you have prepared a bed in the fall, the soil is not necessary (if you cook in the spring, then it is simply necessary to do it and just in 2 weeks), you only need to thoroughly dissolve the surface of the soil, as well as break the large lumps of the Earth.

If you admit the use of mineral fertilizers, it is also desirable to add 10-15 grams of urea (carbamide) per 1 sq.m. beds.

Immediate landing (classic method)

Tip! For landing optimally choose the day when will stand warm and calm (windless) weather.

Step-by-step instruction of classic seed of carrot seeds in open ground:

  • A week before sowing seeds, it is plentiful to break the future carrot bed with hot water (even better with the addition, and then cover the polyethylene film to save humidity and better warming up.

  • Immediately before sowing, make a groove in a depth of 2-3 cm, cutting them at a distance of 15-20 cm from each other.

The deeper sowing of carrots will noticeably detain the emergence of germs, but, on the contrary, smaller - can cause the death of sprouted seeds.

The distance of 15-20 cm is quite enough so that the rows of carrots do not provide each other.

  • Next, moisten the grooves with hot water or a warm solution of manganese, and even better with a solution.

  • Then the grooves should be slightly filled with wood ash (potash fertilizer) and tobacco dust (from pests).
  • Next, decompose the seeds at a distance of at least 1 cm from each other, and better - 2-3 cm.

Do not need to sum up too much, because You will need to sharpen them stronger.

  • All, you can only fall asleep the grooves with fertile soil and compact to improve the contact of seeds with soil. Optionally, you can also clicked by peat crumb.
  • In order for the soil longer than the wet, it remained warm, and hence the seeds germinated faster (seeds appeared), the garden again appeared close the film, and even better spanbondbecause under the film may be too hot, and shoots can burn.

Attention!After the first germs appeared, all shelter needs to be quickly removed (approximately 7-14 days, if you previously soaked seeds). Otherwise, an excessively wet environment may contribute to the reinforcement of gentle sprouts.

Unusual ways to plant carrots

For planting carrots in the spring there are several interesting ways:

The essence of almost all methods is reduced to sow seeds as uniformly, so that it is not necessary to cut forward much.

  • straight sowing Dry seeds in furrows (the easiest way);
  • sowing dry seeds with sand (1 part of the seeds are mixed with 5 or 10 pieces of sand);
  • sowing seeds with tobacco and / or mustard dust (additional protection against carrot pests);
  • sowing Sproved seeds (The first time the soil on the bed should be constantly in a wet state, otherwise the seedlings may die);
  • sowing draised (processed) seeds (all similar to dry seeds);

  • sowing using kiseli.

Sowing Kisli (starch, Claystan)

Many gardeners call this method (acid) the best of all known.

In this way, you can sow both clouded seeds, and already crumpled, and without any concern to damage the sprouts.

The essence of carrot landing in this way as follows:

  • First, you need to prepare starch kissel (hubble). First of all 2 tbsp. The starch spoons dissolve in 0.2 liters of water room temperature, in parallel putting a 0.8 liter of water to the fire. When it boils, pour the resulting solution, and then continuously stirred (so that there is no lumps) for 2-3 minutes, until it boils. Next, turn off the gas and put cold.
  • Prepare seeds.

By the way! You can take pre-clumsy (processed) seeds, and even better so that they have already begun sorce.

  • Then filled 2 liter bottle with a resulting kissel (Cleeter), pumped into it seeds (approximately 2 grams or 1 st. Seeds on 1 liter, i.e. 4 grams or 2 tbsp. Spoons on 2 liters) and mix thoroughly (stagger) .

Alternatively, for convenience and raising the sowing speed, it is better to use bottles with a fairly rigid wall, for example, from under milk or kefira (and even better ketchup or dishwashes, there is more convenient. Then in a bottle plug (if you take a bottle) you can make a hole in which to insert tightly or screw the plastic tube (a simple ballpoint body, only without an acute tip).

  • Quite quickly shedding the groove from beginning to the end of a thin flowing jelly with seeds, squeezing the bottle (pressing on the walls).

Pre-work in order to adjust the speed and stream in advance for the normal distribution of seeds.

And you can also use a special manual vegetable seeder (planting)which is sold in any garden store.

Ribbon

Perhaps the most popular sowing of carrots is landing With ribbon(paper strips, such as the same toilet paper).

You need to glue carrot seeds on paper strips at an appropriate distance, and then just put ribbons with groove seeds and fall asleep with soil.

Video: Morkovay seed planting technology on paper tape (toilet paper) in open ground

By the way! Now you can find ready-made ribbons with glued carrots seeds. At the same time, they are not much more expensive than ordinary seeds.

Thus, you just need to choose the most liked way or not invent and stick to the classics.

There is also a rather tricky way to plant carrots in egg traysThanks to which 2 problems disappear at once: thinning and weeding from weeds. However, according to the reviews of experienced gardeners, this method does not give proper harvest, rooted roots are too small.

How to care for carrots after landing

Of course, to get a good harvest of carrots, it is necessary not only to sow seeds correctly, but in the future to carry out competent and full care for shoots and the younger root roots.

When collecting the harvest of carrots and how to store it

Thus, knowing all the basic rules and recommendations, even a novice dacket will not be difficult to plant carrots seeds in spring seeds in open ground. The main thing is to prepare a bed, soak the seeds and decide on the sowing method. Of course, in order to get a good harvest for shoots, you will also need to care and take care of the harvest in time.

In contact with

To choose the time when sowing carrots in 2020 in the lunar calendar need to take into account some factors. In each region: in the Moscow region, the middle lane of Russia, in the Leningrad region, in Kuban, in Siberia and in the Urals - there are features of planting in an open soil of this culture. It is planted in March, April, May, June. Is it possible to sow carrots under winter, the answer is yes. Lovers of the root will find out when safely in the moon, depending on its location, plant this vegetable culture to minimize risks with its admission and growth.

Dates of landing on the lunar calendar and depending on the region

Despite the fact that "garden astrology" is unrecognized science, it allows breeders to track the effect of lunar phases on the growth and life cycle of cultivated plants. Many were probably convinced that at the peak of lunar activity, it was advisable to completely abandon any activity in the garden or garden, because even the transfer of indoor plants often causes unpleasant consequences. As for rooteplood - for their active growth and development, the time of the fading phase of the Moon is suitable. Going to the main rule - to the first frosts on a decreasing moon:

Favorable days Neutral Sowing forbidden
September 15-27 6, 14, 28 1-5, 7-13, 29, 30
October 15-20, 22-27 5, 14, 21, 28 1-4, 6-13, 29-31
November 13-25 4, 12, 26 1-3, 5-11, 27-30

In the spring months you can also rely on the moon. Sowing carrots in 2020 in the moon:

With full moon, they advise to collect landing material for future seasons, but it is strictly prohibited. Full moon depletes the root system, weakens it.

For different regions of the country, the winter landing time may differ. In the open ground, planting in the spring in the suburbs falls on October and November. When the region approaches cold, stable weather and heat is not expected. The singing feature is deep (from 5 cm). Ural conditions are the same. In this region, cold winters. Do not forget to cover the beds with fir branches. In Siberia, the root plant sits from the beginning of October. It is better to plant on a hill - the snow melts faster, the carrot matures before.

Culture sowing under winter

Recommend to choose a platform, covered by winds with good lighting. Avoid landing on the slopes, in the shade. Carrots can not be pressed in the same place. At the initial digging of the soil, add fertilizers, for example, compost, for this manure is not suitable. If necessary - the soil of ashes is slightly.

On a note!

Groobs for landing should be deeper than for spring landing.

They advise to begin preparations for sowing at the beginning of the fall, for this make grooves depth 2-4 cm, the distance between them is 15-20 cm. After disembarking, 5 cm layer of humus or peat is sprinkled - it will protect the plant from freezing. You can cover the beds of winter carrots with fir branches.

The climate of the country is unpredictable - at first unexpected freezes, and then a sudden thaw. Therefore, it is difficult to give the exact time of sowing. It is necessary to make sure that the seed seeds will not germinate before the onset of stable cold weather, otherwise all plants will die. It is better to sow it on the frozen soil in mid-November, but at the same time increase the amount of planting material by 20% compared with the spring.

Spring fir branches are cleaned with beds. As soon as the snow comes down, low arches stretch over carrots and fasten the material or foil to them - for the rapid ripening of the root. Then the soil is loose, and with the appearance of 1 green sprouts, they are stolen.

Spring Sowing: variety varieties

The culture is seeded in the ranks, every 25 cm, at a depth of 1.5 cm. The seeds are very small, which makes it difficult to sow. You can use seed ribbons. There are other plants, such as dill or radish, which will help in marking a rows. Sluorrow - young plants need to cut forward.

Early carrot varieties should grow at a distance of about 5 cm. Later varieties should grow within 10 cm from each other. It is necessary to regularly water and conduct a weeding. Fertilizer is required to feed ammonium nitrate. Used dose 15 g per sq.m. Landing in March or at the end of June, reduces pest contamizes.

Safe cultivation of carrots is possible under the grid to protect against insects.

The varieties are divided by 3 types: early, secondary and late. In the spring you can plant any variety. Latest vegetables - in summer. For autumn, frost-resistant early and secondary varieties are the most appropriate. Ranned carrot, not suitable for long storage, it is planted as much as they plan to use immediately after harvesting. The secondary carrot is mainly grown to consume immediately. LateVye - for storage and use in winter.

Select a plot with well-drained soil, with a pH from 6.0 to 6.8 and a full sun at least 8 hours a day. When planting carrots, mix it with radish seeds. Radish sprouts and ripens faster than carrots. It will break the ground when will be ready for cleaning.

Use garden grid or tulle to cover the culture during vegetation to avoid carrot flies. If frosts occur early, and, you can leave it for a while in the ground. Easy frost sweetened culture. Collect it right before the earth will freeze.

Do not give the soil to dry completely. Mulch the newspaper or even a light layer of grass to keep moisture in the soil and control weeds. Fertilizer for rooting should contain not a large amount of nitrogen. Fertilizer formula:

  • 5% nitrogen;
  • 10% phosphate;
  • 10% potassium.

Do not put carrots where they grown last year. It is better grows after cucumbers, onions, cabbage and tomatoes, and seed germination can be observed in temperature indicators + 4 ... + 5 ° C. High temperatures, especially when it is accompanied by a decrease in soil moisture, has a harmful effect on root.


Within 1 a few weeks after landing, plants will be too small to fight weeds successfully. In this delicate time, you need to take care that the beds are carefully tight. Onion onions, green onions - one of the concomitant plants for carrots. The onion aroma masks a sweet smelling root root, which will push carrot flies. For even more success, they advise to plant mustard as a coating culture. Mustard perfectly copes with the problems of rooteplood.

Seed seeds immediately in the ground, this culture does not like transplants, the root may be damaged.

Many believe that carrots are better to plant in the spring months, and in the fall to assemble the harvest. And someone, on the contrary, prefers to plant this root plant in winter, which will make it much earlier than landing the earliest spring varieties. The combination of all agrotechnical recommendations and orientations in the lunar landing calendar at 2020 definitely guarantees a better harvest of carrots.

Carrot can be found on any summer cottage. And although the outlets offer it all year round, their own is much tastier and more useful. But a good crop will receive only those gardeners who grow it according to the rules and create the necessary conditions for its development. So that the plants come together and pleased with the yield, experienced gardeners advise to plant carrots in April or the first days of May, taking into account the lunar calendar for 2019.

Since different varieties of carrots are adjacent to one bed quite friendly, it makes sense to sow and early varieties, and the secondary, and late. It is important to choose the properly favorable days for landing of carrots in the lunar calendar. The first harvest will go to salad and other dishes in the summer, and ripening will be used to be used for autumn blanks and bookmarks for storage for winter consumption.

Chapter 1. Favorable days for planting carrots in the spring in 2020 in the lunar calendar

  • march: 20, 21;
  • april: 1, 3, 12, 13, 17, 18;
  • may: 4, 14, 15, 19, 24, 31;
  • june: 1, 7, 10, 11.

First you need to choose a space suitable for carrot. From how correct it will be, the amount of crop depends. It is important to remember that the rootpode does not like shadow, so it is recommended to sow seeds on the well-covered territory of the country area, where the sun shines throughout the day. Also, the plant does not tolerate the landing at the same place, so it's best to choose a new territory every year. It will not grow well or will be bad to grow, if earlier on the site such herbs like Pasternak, parsley, dill or celery are sown. The most optimal predecessors of this root will be: tomatoes, cucumbers, garlic, potatoes and cabbage.

  • june - 3.4, 5, 18.

Section 1. Preparation of seeds of carrots

Before boarding, seeds must be prepared. What is included in it? Soaking seeds in warm water for a while. After - shifting into a wet fabric, which should be rather big to be able to cover the seeds and below and on top. Seeds are left in a dark, warm place and need periodic stirring. After swelling and the appearance of the first sprouts, carrot seeds are placed in the refrigerator, for quenching. As soon as this stage is passed, you will be able to identify defective seeds - those that will not take place in the open soil.

Section 2. Selection of Places

To begin with, it is worth considering that carrots will not tolerate the neighborhood of parsley, Pasternak, dill and celery. The place for sowing carrots in the spring should be chosen because it should be covered by the sun throughout the light day, and it is very important! It will be very good if last year the cucumbers, potatoes, cabbage or tomatoes grew up in the same place.

Time when you need to plant carrots in the spring - this is the second important factor from which the amount and quality of the crop will depend. In the afternoon there must be warmer +12 degrees, and at night it is not colder than + 5-7 degrees. Only in this case the floral arrows will not actively develop, and instead the carrot root itself will begin to grow. Now let's ask experienced gardens, which carrot to plant early in spring?

Section 3. Sowing

Waiting for good weather when it is possible to plant carrots in the spring, pumping the beds and harrow them. On the soil, we make a bed, the width between them should be at least 15-20 centimeters. Having placing the plot, we make straight grooves, shed them with water. Consider that carrots love water very much! It is necessary to water so that the soil rinsed 30-35 how to put carrots in the spring, almost every seed germinate. For this reason, the seeds should be put into the furrow one after every 2-3 centimeters. We sprinkle the soil planting grooves, slightly compact from above. Within 3-4 days you will already see shoots.


Chapter 3. Favorable days for landing of carrots in the fall of 2020 in the lunar calendar

Section 1. Planting carrots under winter

On the one hand, it may seem risky to land the carrot under the winter. But not so terrible, as they draw it. This event allows the gift book to achieve a crop before and rid oneself from unnecessary trouble, which threaten farmers in the spring. Such seedlings will be resistant under the winter, and you will not lose a crop with spring frosts. In order to inspire the confidence that you do not leave in such a bold, you should correctly pick up a carrot variety. Not all varieties are able to survive a minus temperature, so this step is one of the most important.

Section 2. Variety of frost-resistant carrot varieties

  1. Nante gives a crop after a couple of months from the moment of planting, this variety is distinguished by pleasant taste and cold resistance. Suitable for landing for the winter.
  2. Shanta is inferior in its qualities of the previous one, and matures much later. But it can be more worn, and will survive the lack of watering.
  3. The incomparable carrot is a long spice, but the level of useful properties is excavated in it. Poses bad weather for the winter.
  4. Vitamin in terms of qualities corresponds to its name and surprises the speed of maturation and stability.
  5. Losinoostrovskaya is also endowed with endurance and in taste is not inferior to everyone listed.
  6. Moscow winter is characteristic of the territory of the same name. Delicious and hardy. And great for landing for the winter.

You have chosen a suitable carrot variety. Now you need to understand when sowing carrots in winter in the ground and how to choose the place where you will sow. Choose an elevated place for the winter closed from the wind, but affordable for the sun. The soil must be loose, regardless of the seeding period.

A suitable period for sowing a selected variety is November. Clean the soil from weed for the winter and break it carefully. Carrots are planted exclusively in loose ground, no other is suitable for this event. You can make a solid soil of sawdust for the winter, which laid half, as fresh is not suitable. To achieve the necessary consistency of the soil, support it with organic fertilizers. If you use manure, do not apply fresh. Carrot grows curved when using fresh manure.

At what favorable days of May, carrots seeds are advised to suck on the lunar calendar designed for 2018? What should be considered when landing of carrots in May?

Favorable days for landing of carrots

in May 2018

With good conditions, the carrots gives a high harvest, so it is grown by almost all gardeners. It grows perfectly in any climate, but the timing of the sowing of this culture may differ, which is associated with weather conditions. Generally, sowing seed carrots Conducted in May and in June. If the root plates are planned to be grown for winter storage, then this culture is needed to soze in May, with the onset of sustainable weather.

It should be taken into account when sowing seeds of carrots in May:

  1. Temperature indicator. Determining with the timing of the sowing of this culture, the temperature of the soil and air should be taken into account. The main thing - at night and day should be a permanent plus, without frost. Despite the fact that shoots are not bad to carry short-term cooling, the seeds are recommended to soak when the soil and air warm down slightly (from + 4 ° C and higher). For example, in the Urals, such a temperature is set on May 15-20. Then spend sowing seed carrots in open ground.
  2. Moon calendar. On the lunar calendar designed for 2018, seeds of carrots Recommended sow in the following favorable days of May : 9, 16-19, 24, 28-29. The growing moon will accelerate the growth of seed shoots, sprouts will be more enduring, strong.
  3. Germination. Seed carrots are encouraged to check the quality of the germination in advance, which will allow you to get a good harvest and avoid rearing in June. 2 weeks before the alleged sowing, the seeds are soaked in wet fabric. On average quality is evidenced by the crossing of half of the seeds, if any, it means that the seeds are very good. Naturally, the longer the seeds lie, the smallest of their germination.
  4. Grade. In May, it is recommended to search for late maturation carrot varieties - Nantes, Flacke, Berlikum, Autumn Queen. A distinctive feature of these varieties is the high focus of rooteplood, high sugar. At the end of May and in the first decade of June, carrots of early maturation workers are sown - Paris Gornel, Amsterdam, Chain. These varieties root are kept shortly, they are mainly used for conservation and fresh consumption.

Select dates seeding of carrot seeds in May Need to consider the above factors.

  • In order for the landing ridge to be prepared since autumn, fertilized fertilizers.
  • Seed seeds in different ways, but most often the classic method is used - in the grooves.
  • The depth of the groove should be no more than 1 cm, otherwise the seeds of carrots will not be able to climb.
  • Between the grooves withstand the distance of about 20 cm.
  • Seeds are decomposed at a distance of 0.3-1 cm each other.
  • Pop the seeds of light soil to exclude the seal, after which the grooves are shedding with water.
  • So that the soil did not save and the crust was not formed.

You can search for carrots seeds by another interesting way - chaotic scattering them along the surface of the soil. After that, the robbles close them on a small depth, it remains only to pour out the ridge from the watering can with a small pitch.

Proper agrotechnology of the cultivation of carrots will provide you with a high harvest. The basic principles in the technology of growing carrots are described in this our site.

Every gardener in the spring necessarily sows carrots! However, not everyone succeeds. Why? There is a lot of reasons for this: incorrectly selected seeding time, unsuccessful selection of a variety or violation of agrotechnology.

The seeding dates directly affect the yield of carrots and depend on the variety and purpose of ready-made roots. Carrot is a cold-resistant culture: the minimum necessary temperature for germination of seeds + 3 ... + 6 ° C, germs to carry out short-term freezing to -4 ... -5 ° C. In terms of maturation, all the varieties of carrots are divided into early varieties, which have a growing season for up to 100 days, the secondary days - up to 120 days and late - up to 140 days.

To get an early carrot on the table, choose early and ultra-splash varieties, ripening in 45-60 days, the late-leaving varieties of carrots are better for storing in winter.

Terms of sowing seed carrots

For early consumption, carrots seeds are seeded from April 25 to May 1, the next sowing of the average carrot varieties - May 1 - May 10. If the carrot is necessary for long-term storage, then it is seized in the first - second decade of May, on May 25 inclusive.

In the southern regions, carrots can be sowed in 2 times: first sowing - March 10-20, the second sowing of carrots - May 10-15.
