This trick will help summer residents who are tired of pulling small and crooked root crops out of the ground every year.

It's not just about special fertilizers and special agricultural techniques. There are obvious things that many people don't pay attention to in the hustle and bustle.

Summer residents who know the peculiarities of vegetable crops always use this trick. It is not new for them to surprise relatives and neighbors with a luxurious harvest.

It all starts with seedlings. Crops need constant care and watering. This is especially necessary for seedlings that have recently found themselves in the ground.

A slightly different rule applies to carrots. At the seedling stage, you need to treat the orange vegetable differently.

When the seedlings just start to hatch, gardeners are in no hurry to moisten the soil. They do not water the plantings for about 7-10 days. The trick is that the roots, when there is a moisture deficit on the surface, go deeper into the ground. This is how a larger root crop is formed, which will surprise even experienced gardeners.
