2. Make sure to water your carrot garden regularly, but do not overfill or overwater your soil, as this can cause root rot or poor nutrient availability to the plants.

3. Kaleidoscope Carrots prefer a slightly acidic soil with a pH of 5.5-6.5, and require plenty of sunshine throughout their growing season (at least 8-10 hours per day).

4. The crop should be fertilized every couple of weeks with a balanced 10:10:10 fertilizer that is low in nitrogen content so as not to promote leaf growth and instead encourage carrot production and root development.

5. Hand pull any weeds that may take hold in the area and try to mulch around the plants to keep them warm during cooler temperatures, such as hay or straw laid down around two inches deep on top of the soil surface

Tips and Tricks

• Before planting, choose a sunny area and make sure to till the soil to loosen it up.

• Add some compost to the soil mix in order to improve texture, provide essential nutrients and aid drainage.

• Space your plants out at least six inches apart so they can grow enough roots.

• Provide ample water but avoid oversaturating the soil; water when the top inch of soil becomes dry.

• Fertilize your Kaleidoscope Carrots every couple of weeks with liquid fertilizer or manure tea for fresh growth.

• Mulch heavily around the carrots to help retain moisture and suppress weeds.

• Hand pick pests from your garden regularly or set up bug traps if needed.



• Carefully pull up mature carrots with a fork (don’t jerk or tug as this can break them off).
