Carrot Seeds - Amsterdam Blunt, cylindrical, 10-12 cm long roots.
Quick maturing variety.

Carrot Amsterdam is an early variety. Ideal for sowing under protection from as early as February. The relatively short roots makes this carrot a must have in shallow soils; and also ideal for baby carrot production. The cylindrical roots are deep orange in colour and have almost no core.

Carrots are rich in antioxidants and vitamin A. Roots are delicious raw when they are young and great for cooking too. Approximately 100 days from sowing to full maturity.

 

Dig deep where you want to grow your carrot and add plenty of organic material to the soil in the autumn and as much sand as you can afford; this will help the roots to grow long and straight!

Sow Carrot Amsetrdam seeds from February to June 1 cm deep, leaving 30-35cm between the rows.

Thin out when seedlings are 10-15cm long leaving 2-3cm between plants, depending on how large you want your root to be.

Keep watering in hot summer, water in the evening to avoid attracting carrot fly.
Delicious raw when smaller in size, great addition to any salad.
