Reminder to direct sow seeds for carrots right NOW #carrot #garden #gardeningtips #vegetablegarden

December is the last chance to direct sow carrot seeds if your located in the South USA garden zones 9-11 (warm winter climates). Zone 8 gardeners can continue direct sowing seed through January.

Carrots require 3-4 months of consistently mild or cold temperatures to grow properly. If your carrots were tiny or stunted in growth, most likely it was because they were exposed to temperatures that were too hot.

Using my garden as an example – Central FL zone 10A – I start direct sowing seeds for the heat tolerant carrot cultivars at the end of September. I direct sow seeds for all the regular cultivars in October. The last time I direct sow seeds is December to ensure they grow in cool weather for the next few months.

I have a YouTube video tutorial all about growing carrots from seed to harvest if you need expert tips: https://youtu.be/nsEZCDwjxFw
