Choose a location with loose, well-drained soil that is free from rocks and debris. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of about 12 inches and removing any weeds or debris. Sow the seeds directly into the soil, planting them about 1/4 inch deep and spacing them 2 to 3 inches apart in rows or clusters. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during the germination period. Mulch around the plants to retain moisture and suppress weed growth, and fertilize with a balanced fertilizer every 4 to 6 weeks. With proper care, you'll soon enjoy a harvest of sweet and crunchy Danvers 126 carrots throughout the growing season.
