Description: Danvers 126 Half Long Carrot Seeds 70 days. The original Danvers Half Long dates back to the 1870s. This strain “126” was improved in the 1940s. The old standard American carrot, adaptable and dependable. Thick 7” roots have good flavor. Productive.. Sowing: Prepare the soil 3 weeks before the last expected spring frost or when the soil temperature reaches 45 degrees F. These short, stocky carrots can grow even in heavy soil. Build up a raised mound in the row, about 8" wide; sow Danvers carrot seeds on it, and cover them with 1/4" very loose soil. Keep the soil moist, but do not allow the area above these medium sized carrot seeds to become hard - this may prevent the seeds from germinating. Sow more Danvers carrot seeds every 3-6 weeks for a continuous crop. For companion planting benefits, plant carrots with aromatic herbs or onions; this will repel the carrot fly and its maggots. Growing: When the seedlings reach 2" high, gently thin them to 2-4" apart, depending on desired carrot size. The farther apart they are, the bigger they will grow. Do not allow the soil to dry out. When the tops of the carrots begin to emerge from the soil, cover them with mulch to keep them tender. Keep weeds under control to prevent the young carrots from being stunted. Danvers carrots are quite heat tolerant and resist splitting. SHIPPING INFO*********** Tracking is only available for all orders $14 and above.
