In June, it is already possible to start not only to the thinning of seedlings grown carrots, but also to carry out repeated crops for winter storage of root crops. Get aligned harvest of root crops is obtained only by those who adhere to the norms of agricultural technology, intelligently selects the timing sowing and prefers varieties of carrots, which are best suited to grow in certain climates conditions.

For many years the cultivation of carrots I had to carry out sowing and before winter, and early spring, and summer. Many experts believe that leaving for winter root vegetables carrots obtained from early spring planting - wasted effort. Therefore, I practice the cultivation of carrots at least in two periods - spring and summer. It lays a second crop in storage.

Carrot seeds are sown in the I-II decade of June (by 25 June) at the site, available from early vegetable crops. Of course, when sown in the summer time frame to get good germination is difficult enough, but if it happens, will be deposited can establish healthy, young, succulent roots. In addition, this carrot is much tastier than that obtained from a spring sowing and grown from it not next year seeds are obtained very good quality.

It has long been observed that pre-sowing preparation of seeds - an essential condition for obtaining a high yield of roots. Therefore, the seeds soak for a day in warm water, changing it 3 times, and then dried to their flowability. To the hot dry days to receive friendly shoots, deep dig site and spend copious watering by sprinkling for 2-3 days. A day later, two soil harrows and make the seed furrow. It is very important that they are shallow (1.5-3.0 cm).

Furrow properly filled with water and after 30 min. when the water is completely absorbed, sow carrot seeds banded. Gently sprinkled furrow soil and lightly compacted it with wide boards or conventional roller. On hot days of June to the soil surface temperature may reach 50-60 C, whereby the upper portion of the soil dries up very quickly. Therefore, to inhibit evaporation of moisture, a bed pritenyayut tree branches.

Before thinning carrots beds definitely need to water to make it easier to remove excess plants. Next decimation spend 20-25 days, leaving a distance of 5 cm between cultures. With this agricultural practices can not be late, because the density of plant roots are intertwined. Immediately after the removal of excess plant a flower bed sipping.

I try to thin out the carrots, while the loose soil, the procedure is done in the morning so as not to attract the odor tops carrot fly.

To ensure that the plant is better access of air after each irrigation and rain gently loosen the soil.

I wish you success in your vegetable business!
