Carrot Asian Kuroda Heirloom
Daucus carota
Days to maturity: 75
Late planting your garden? Kuroda is quite heat resistant; don’t hesitate to plant in late spring when you might be doubtful about sowing carrots. Smooth, tapered roots, 8" long with 1" - 1½" shoulders. Simply unsurpassed for flavor - one of the sweetest carrots you will eat!
This packet plants four 10 foot rows.
Days to Emerge: 10-25
Seed Depth: 1/4"
Seed Spacing: 1"
Row Spacing: 6"
Thinning: When 1" tall, thin to 1 every 3"
When to sow outside: RECOMMENDED. 2 to 4 weeks before average last frost. Successive sowings every 3 weeks until 60 days before first fall frost. In climates with lows above 25° F, grow all winter.
When to start inside: Not recommended
Harvesting: Do not allow carrots to get larger than normal size (see plant dimensions); flavor is best after bright orange color develops. Peak harvest period lasts for 3 weeks. Late summer planted carrots are very sweet if harvested after first couple of light fall frosts, but before heavy frost. In climates where temperatures don’t fall below 20° F, with protection, carrots can be left in ground for storage, and harvested as needed.
