Sow seeds direct into a garden bed or pot approximately 4mm deep. If you prefer, seeds can be sown into a drill and soil can be sprinkled lightly over the seeds (make sure you don't pack the soil down tight!). Keep the soil moist ensuring that it doesn't dry out. When sowing direct, ensure carrot seeds are sown 5cm apart. If sprinkling seeds, thin sprouts so they are 5cm apart. Leave approximately 25 to 30cm between rows of Paris Market Carrots. Germination occurs within 10 to 20 days. Seeds can be sown in a range of temperatures, but for best results sow when the temperature is between 10 to 30°C. Paris Market Carrots reach full maturity within 60 to 90 days.
