VibeX Carrot Early Nantes Fresh Seeds Seed  (125 per packet)

PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS Carrot seeds should be planted 0.4 inches deep into the soil. This ensures that the seeds start germinating within 2-3 weeks. Make sure that each seed is planted at least 6 inches apart from each other. Thin the plants to about 3 inches apart once the seedlings have grown a few leaves. Your carrot plants should get at least 3-4 hours of sunlight in a day. Maintain a moderate watering schedule for carrots. Let the top 1cm of the soil layer dry up before watering again. GROWING REQUIREMENTS PESTS & DISEASES Pests: Willow Carrot Aphid, Carrot Rust Fly, Carrot Weevil, Flea Beetle, Root-Knot Nematodes. Diseases: Alternaria Leaf Blight, Cercospora Leaf Blight, Cottony Rot, Downy Mildew, Powdery Mildew, Bacterial Leaf Blight, Soft Rot, Cavity Spot, Damping-off. Watering the plants in the morning helps to avoid fungal diseases. Companion plants significantly reduce incoming pests on your crops. Watering down the plants with a strong stream of water followed by an application of diluted neem or castor oil on the pest-affected parts of the plant will help to get rid of them.
