Planting Tips:
Sow Rainbow Blend Carrot seeds directly outdoors in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked. For a fall carrot harvest, sow another crop in late summer, allowing enough time for the roots to mature before severe cold weather.

Carrots grow best in loose, deep, well-drained soil that is free of rocks, clumps, and other obstructions that can cause roots to become misshapen. Plant seeds approximately ¼ inch deep and keep the soil surface consistently moist during germination. Carrot seeds can be slow to sprout, so avoid allowing the seedbed to dry out.

Thin seedlings as they grow to provide enough room for individual roots to develop. Harvest Rainbow Blend Carrots when the roots reach a desirable size and show their mature color.

🥕 Colorful Carrot Mix: Grow a fun assortment of colorful carrots for fresh eating, roasting, salads, and other recipes. Since this is a mixed seed packet, the number and proportion of each carrot color can vary.

🌱 Container Friendly: Rainbow Blend Carrots can be grown successfully in containers and small-space gardens. Choose a container at least 10–12 inches deep with loose soil and good drainage.
