The size and sweetness of the future carrot root depends on many factors.

It is very important to pay attention to proper soil preparation and seed selection.

In order to obtain good fruits, it is necessary to start care at the very beginning of the fruit’s growth.

We suggest considering simple and useful tips that will help you grow a large fruit.

What is recommended to do?

  1. You need to thin out and weed the planting. Carrots will not grow large if you do not thin out the bed - the distance between the fruits determines their size.
  2. Be sure to monitor watering. Every 2-3 days you need to provide the beds with moisture. It is not recommended to water until the soil dries out.
  3. Apply nitrogen fertilizer, but remember that too much nitrogen will cause the leaves to grow faster.
  4. Every 7-14 days, preventive measures against planting diseases should be carried out by adding biopreparations, for example, phytosporin or frutin.
  5. Don't forget to carry out hilling - do it carefully so as not to damage the plant.
