Carrot Seeds - Bambino (Organic) - 1 Oz ~18000 Seeds - Daucus carota var sativa - Certified Organic, Non-GMO, Heirloom - Farm & Vegetable Garden

Bambino. Carrot. Daucus carota. 54-63 days. Organic. Non-GMO. Annual. Organic Bambino carrot is considered a gourmet variety, reaching its peak of flavor at about 4-5 inches long. Bambino earns its name because, when compared to much larger 8-9 inch Tendersweet carrots, the Bambino has significantly smaller greens and harvestable roots. Similar to other dwarfed gourmet carrots such as Parisian, Chantenay, and Little Fingers, the organic Bambino carrot has more concentrated sweetness and flavor than most overgrown varieties that can lose their best flavor once it is too mature. Like any root vegetable, carrot does not transplant well and should rarely, if ever, be started indoors. Directly sow 2-3 Bambino carrot seeds .25 inch deep and 1-2 inch apart in very loose, well-tilled, and well-drained soil in full sun. Carrot seeds often germinate in 14-21 days, thinning back to 1 plant every 2 as true leaves establish. Avoid nitrogen-rich fertilizers which are known to cause growth abnormalities. 7500 seeds/oz.
