Height
Extremely popular Asian Chantenay-type carrot variety that produces sweet, flavorful, bright orange carrots that grow 13-15 cm (5-6") long with wide shoulders. This carrot variety does well in a wide range of soil types and is an excellent choice for eating, juicing, freezing, canning and pickling. A good storage variety. Uniform soil moisture is essential in producing crisp, sweet carrots.
- Start seeds indoors if you have a short growing period; use peat free bio-degradable pots so as to not disturb roots as carrots typically do not transplant very well, recommended to be directly sown.

- OR direct Sow 2 to 4 weeks before the last spring frost until midsummer or 90 days before the first fall frost.
- Planting Depth: 1 cm
- Row Spacing: 45-60 cm
- Germinates in 7-21 days; Optimal Soil Temperature: 22-28°C
- Keep soil moist so it doesn't crust before the seedlings emerge.
