Carrot 'Parmex'

Plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water often. Parmex is generally regarded as a very hardy plant, so this plant will tend to survive through freezing conditions. Parmex needs a loamy and sandy soil with a ph of 6.0 to 6.5 (weakly acidic soil).

Try to aim for a seed spacing of at least 0.39 inches (1.0 cm) and sow at a depth of around 0.23 inches (0.6 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 16°C / 61°F.

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

Sow in deep, well-worked, stone-free soil after danger of heavy frost from spring to midsummer. Do not transplant, as crooked roots may result. Cultivate periodically or mulch to control weeds. Keep soil evenly moist.

Parmex is very hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.

By our calculations, you should look at planting out Parmex about 14 days before your last frost date.

This variety tends to mature and be ready for harvest in late spring.
