DirtGently's Indoor Carrots Care Instructions
Look to ensure a distance 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - cover at a depth of at least 0.23 inches (0.6 cm) deep if you are going to sow this directly in the garden.
Ensure you have enough space in your garden for this plant - Carrot 'Jaune du Doubs' is known for growing to a height of approximately 15.0 cm (that's 5.85 inches in imperial).
Your garden is in fluorescent light: Carrot 'Jaune du Doubs' enjoys a full sun position, so make adjustments where necessary.
Remember to water often.
Your garden's USDA Hardiness Zone (5a) is within the ideal range for Carrot 'Jaune du Doubs'. The recommended range is between Zone 3 and 11.
Ensure your soil has a ph of between 6.0 and 6.5 as Carrot 'Jaune du Doubs' is a acidic soil loving plant.
Keep an eye out for these common Carrot problems: Cucumber Mosaic Virus, Carrot Fly, Bacterial Leaf Blight, Bacterial soft rot, and Carrot bacteriosis.
