Carrot 'Atlas'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Keep in mind when planting that Atlas is thought of as very hardy, so this plant will typically do well in a variety of different extremes of cold temperature. Planting Atlas in loamy and sandy soil with a ph of between 6.0 and 6.5 is ideal for as it does best in weakly acidic soil.

Sow at a depth of approx. 0.23 inches (0.6 cm) and aim for a distance of at least 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) between Carrot plants. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 16°C / 61°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Atlas about 14 days before your last frost date.

As Atlas is very hardy, ensure temperatures are mild enough to plant out - wait until after your last frost date to be on the safe side.
