How to Guide

Sow outdoors

April-June: Sow thinly 1⁄2in (1cm) deep in shallow pre-watered drills, in soil that hasn’t been manured in the last 12 months. Keep soil moist at all times. Thin to 5-8cm(2-3 in) apart. Avoid crushing the leaves as the scent attracts carrot root fly.

Tips

Use fleece to keep low flying carrot root fly from your crop. Roots store well if cleaned and packed in boxes of dry sand or compost.
