WEST COAST SEEDS CARROT BOLERO
Regular carrot seeds are very tiny. For ease of planting, nothing beats seeds that have a coating that makes each one bigger and easy to handle.

  • Space Bolero Pelleted carrot seeds 2cm (1inch) apart to make thinning a breeze! Sized for precision seeding.
  • Bolero carrot seeds are a great variety for home or market. They are very sweet and crunchy, and a good keeper in storage or in the ground.
  • Roots are bright orange, 14cm (5″) long, and slightly tapered, with the typical blunt Nantes tip.
  • High level of resistance to Alternaria blights and powdery mildew. Very tasty! Winner of the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
  • Matures in 75 days. (Hybrid seeds)

    Growing Carrots from Seed

  • Direct sow from just after the last frost date to late summer for harvests from summer through early winter.
  • Optimal soil temperature: 7-30°C (45-85°F). Seeds may take as long as 14-21 days to germinate.
  • Because carrot seeds are tiny, they need to be sown shallowly. The trick is to keep the top-most layer of soil damp during the relatively long germination period. Water deeply prior to planting.
  • Make sure the seeds are only just buried. Water the area with the gentlest stream possible, and keep it constantly moist until the seeds sprout.


    Companion Planting For Carrots

  • Plant with bean seeds, Brassicas, chives, leeks, lettuce, onions, peas, peppers, pole beans, radish, rosemary, sage, and tomatoes.
  • Avoid planting with dill, parsnips, and potatoes.
  • Carrots planted near tomatoes may have stunted roots, but will have exceptional flavour. Chives also benefit carrots.
