Dayana carrots are one of those varieties that can be planted not only in spring, but also in autumn (for the winter). This advantage makes it possible to plant and harvest crops even in the most remote corners of Siberia. It has good taste, high yield, excellent storage, and does not require special growing conditions or care.

Description of the variety and its characteristics

Dayana is a mid-season, productive variety. The growing season is 110-120 days. Root vegetables have an elongated cylindrical shape. The weight of one vegetable ranges from 100 to 170 grams.

Sowing seeds can be done both in early spring and in mid-November. The Dayana carrot variety is more suitable for sowing for the winter.

During the period of growth and maturation, the plant does not need special care. It is enough to carry out timely watering, fertilizing, loosening the soil and thinning. To stimulate the development and accelerate the ripening of root crops, you can use growth stimulants specially developed for carrots.

Important! Carrots should not be fertilized with fresh manure, much less planted seeds in it.

With this method of fertilizing and planting, there is a high probability of the main root crop dying off and lateral shoots developing, which leads to the formation of a branched or twisted vegetable.

Harvesting takes place in the fall. Root vegetables store well. No special storage conditions are required.It is enough to observe the temperature regime and maintain an optimal level of air humidity in the storage room.

Thanks to its sweetish taste, the Dayana variety is perfect for cooking:

juices;
puree;
dishes intended for baby food;
conservation;
salads

Carrots are a rich source of carotene and vitamins, which is why growing such a healthy and tasty vegetable is very popular among amateur gardeners and professional farmers.

I became a mother a year ago. The problem for most mothers is the introduction of complementary foods. I didn’t have this problem, thanks to Dayan’s carrots. The vegetable is juicy, sweet, and stores well even in the refrigerator. I used it to prepare everything for my son - from juices and purees, to vegetable soups and salads. Carrots of the Dayana variety have become a real lifesaver for me.

I have been growing carrots in my dacha for many years. Dayana planted the variety last year for the first time. I planted the seeds for the winter. I was very worried whether the variety would be able to overwinter in the garden. Everything worked out fine. In the spring shoots appeared. I took care of the plant as always: watered, loosened, fertilized. The carrots grew large, even, one to one, exactly like in the picture with the seeds. The yield is high, which particularly pleased me. The vegetable tastes sweet. I make vegetable juices from carrots and add them to cabbage when canning. For juice, Dayana was just perfect. Due to the large size of the root crop, the raw material does not require long preparation and is very easy to process. I planted it again this year.
