Sow Outdoors: Directly sow seeds in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant seeds about 1/4 inch deep and space them 1 inch apart in rows that are about 12–18 inches apart.
Germination: Keep the soil consistently moist. Germination typically takes 10–20 days.
Thinning: Once the seedlings are a few inches tall, thin them to about 2–3 inches apart to allow space for the carrots to develop.
Sunlight and Care: Carrots prefer full sun and well-drained, sandy soil. Water regularly but avoid overwatering, as soggy soil can lead to rot. Mulching helps retain moisture and reduce weeds.
Carrot 'Amsterdam 3' is a popular early variety with sweet, crisp, and tender roots. It's perfect for growing in small spaces or containers and is ideal for both fresh eating and cooking.
