Thompson & Morgan Carrot Bangor Seeds

An outstanding garden variety, producing a uniform crop of heavy, cylindrical rich orange skinned and fleshed roots of 25-30cm (10-12in) length. A maincrop variety with excellent flavour, roots resist ‘greening of crowns’ and cracking and have excellent storing capabilities.

How to sow

Sow thinly, 12mm (1/2in) deep in well-prepared soil, in rows 30cm (12in) apart. Thin out seedlings if necessary, to 2.5cm (1in) apart.

How to grow

Water only if necessary as excessive water may encourage leaf growth instead of roots. Earth up growing roots with soil to prevent green crowns. Cover later sowings with fleece or fine netting to minimise carrot fly infestation. Water soil beforehand, if dry, to make lifting easier.
