Experienced gardeners know that in most cases, carrot harvesting occurs in September.
This means that you need to be responsible when choosing carrots.
Which carrots can be stored all winter?
Variety and soil
Some varieties are only suitable for consumption in the weeks following harvest, so it is worth finding out in advance about the shelf life of a particular variety of carrot.
It is also worth considering the quality of your soil: the vegetable will only be stored well if the soil has not been contaminated with various infections.
Earth
It is important to remember that carrots will be best stored if the box also contains soil. The soil should account for about 10%.
Quality of vegetable
In order for carrots to be stored all winter, they need to be collected in a timely manner. Visually assess the quality: the vegetable should not have any defects or damage.
Storage conditions
Carrots definitely prefer coolness, so the ideal temperature is 0 degrees. The humidity level should be more than 90%. But in this case, it is extremely important not to allow the temperature to rise.
