Advantages of the variety
It is useful for gardeners to know the main advantages that “Winter Nectar” carrots have:
- Maturation category. You don’t have to look for a replacement for early sowing or winter sowing if you choose “Winter Nectar”. Mid-late varieties tolerate any type of planting well. It is equally easy to obtain young “bunched” root vegetables or juicy ones for winter storage.
- Standard agricultural technology. For a good harvest, it will be enough to fertilize and loosen the soil before sowing the seeds. The seeds do not need to be soaked. Some manufacturers offer seeds on a tape, which is very convenient. The tape is placed in a moistened groove to a depth of 2 cm and sprinkled with earth. To get early, full-fledged shoots, the beds are covered with film, especially at night. If you purchased seeds without tape, then in the future you will not need to thin out the seedlings. Subsequently, you need to water the carrots in a timely manner, loosen the soil, and feed them with fertilizers (mineral).The amount of fertilizing depends on the composition of the soil. On good fertilized soil, Winter Nectar carrots do not even require additional nutrition. Sowing begins at the earliest possible time - at the end of April, with winter sowing - at the end of October. Planting depth is 2.5 cm, row spacing is maintained at 20 cm. Plants are thinned out first with a distance of 1.5 cm, then again, leaving 4 cm between carrots.
