  1. Carots are short day, cold weather plants. I would recommend Chantenay carrots since they are sweet and easy to grow.


  2. just plant them into your garden (i tried planting only the top of the carrot only )

  3. Carrots need to have loose, fertile soil that is free of rocks or other debris that can cause the roots to split.  The depth of the planting medium should be at least one foot.  Make sure there is good drainage; carrots do not grow well in soggy soil.  Carrot seeds are very small, so you don't need a deep hole, just a shallow trench dragged out with a skewer or something.  Drop the seeds in as thinly as you can.  Water daily until the plants germinate, then water deeply, but infrequently.  As they grow, pull out the smaller of any two carrots that are growing too closely together to prevent crowding, allowing the more vigorous plant to grow.  Over time, you'll have baby carrots that will go great in your salad.  Once carrots are two to three inches apart, you can let them grow and/or harvest as you see fit.

  4. Plant them in a sunny location and wait. Thin them out after the plants get about 2 inches  high. Harvest when the orange tops start to come out of the ground.
