Following certain rules for watering in July will make the chances of getting a very high-quality harvest almost 100%.

Root vegetables are likely to be large, juicy and sweet.

Lack of moisture will certainly lead to a deterioration in the quality of the vegetable: it will be small and tasteless.

However, you don't need to water carrots too often in July. One procedure every 5-7 days is enough.

The liquid should penetrate deep into the soil. And remember that excess water is dangerous for carrots: do not turn the bed into a "swamp" under any circumstances.

There are no specific recommendations for water consumption. Focus on weather conditions, as well as the condition of the extracted root. The latter's bifurcation indicates excess moisture. Excessive hardness and dryness indicate a lack of water.

Do not use cold water when watering: the plant will not "react" well to liquid at a low temperature. Carrots should be watered with warm water.
