To plant Scarlet Nantes carrot seeds, choose a sunny location with loose, well-draining soil free from rocks and debris. Prepare the soil by loosening it to a depth of at least 8 inches and removing any obstacles that may obstruct carrot growth. Sow the seeds thinly about 1/4 inch deep and space them 2-3 inches apart in rows spaced 12-18 inches apart. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged during germination, which typically takes 1-3 weeks, and thin the seedlings to about 2 inches apart once they have emerged to allow for proper root development.
