The Farther Apart They Are, The Bigger They Will Grow. Do Not Allow The Soil To Dry Out. When The Tops Of The Carrots Begin To Emerge From The Soil, Cover Them With Mulch To Keep Them Tender.

Danvers Carrots Are Quite Heat Tolerant And Resist Splitting. | Harvesting: Begin Gathering Baby Carrots When Grow Big Enough To Eat, To Allow The Remaining Carrots To Reach A Larger Size.

In Warmer Climates, Leave The Carrots In The Garden Over Winter Topped With A Thick Layer Of Mulch. | Seed Saving: Because Carrot Varieties Will Cross Pollinate With Each Other As Well As With Wild Carrots, Isolate The Plant For Seed At Least Two Miles From Other Varieties Or Provide A Protective Cage. In Areas Where The Ground Freezes Over Winter, It Will Be Necessary To Dig Up The Carrots Before The First Heavy Frost; Twist Off The Tops And Store The Carrots At 35 Degrees F In Damp Sand Or Sawdust Over Winter, Making Sure The Roots Do Not Touch. Plant Medium Sized Carrot Seeds Again In The Spring. From 30-40 Carrots Should Be Harvested To Preserve Genetic Diversity. In Warmer Climates, Leave Them In The Ground And Cover Them Thickly With Mulch Over Winter. In The Spring, Allow The Top Of The Plant To Flower; When They Grow Brown And Dry, Cut Them Off And Allow Them To Fully Dry. Clean To Remove As Much Chaff As Possible, Then Store Danvers Carrot Seeds In A Cool, Dry Place For Up To Three Years.
