Big yields and even bigger flavor
Days to Maturity: 65 from direct sowFuerte Hybrid is out to make this seasons carrot crop your best ever. A Nantes type with blunt-tipped, straight orange roots, its ideal for canning or freezing because the fruit is so uniformly sized. But most of all, its delicious fresh from the warm earth, with a crisp bite and satisfying sweet flavor.Renowned for its strong top growth, Fuerte reaches up to 2 feet above ground, and 6 to 9 inches below. Harvest these carrots when the shoulders, poking out of the soil, are anywhere from 1½ to 2½ inches in diameter. They will be straight as soldiers, easy to cut into rounds because they dont taper, and simply delicious.Higher in vitamins A and B than their store-bought counterparts, homegrown carrots are also rich in calcium and phosphorus. Natures perfect snack, they hold well after harvest, and can remain in the ground a few extra weeks in cool weather.Carrot seeds are best sown directly into the soil as soon as it is workable in spring. Continue to sow seeds every 2 weeks or so until mid-spring in warm climates, or right into midsummer in cooler areas. In warm climates, resume sowing in late summer and early fall for crops that can go into winter.Heavy soils are a problem for root development, so prepare the soil thoroughly before planting or, if you are in a clay soil area, consider growing in raised beds or even containers. Carrots also need moisture to keep from splitting. With these needs met, they are virtually trouble freeSow the seeds thickly in straight rows and when the seedlings reach a few inches high, thin them to 3 inches apart. (The thinnings are excellent in soups, by the way) Plan on big yields every time from Fuerte.

Superior Germination Through Superior Science

Park Seed's humidity- and temperature-controlled seed storage vault

Park Seed offers some of the highest-quality vegetable and flower seeds available in the industry, and there are a number of reasons for this.

First of all, we have humidity- and temperature-controlled storage, and we never treat any of our seeds with chemicals or pesticides. Nor do we ever sell GMO's (genetically modified seeds), so you always know the products you're buying from us are natural as well as safe for you and the environment.

Superior Standards - University Inspected

Testing seeds against minimum germination standards

To make sure we are providing the best seed product possible and that our customers will get the highest number of seedlings from every packet, we conduct our own germination testing and have quality-control measures in every stage of our seed-handling operation. We hold ourselves to standards that are at or above federal and state standards, including testing specific crops more frequently than recommended by federal guidelines. And in order to maintain our organic certification, we welcome Clemson University to inspect us annually to make sure our organic seeds, which are stored and processed separately, are being handled properly.
