The MayFord Carrot Chantenay Karoo is a robust, sweet-flavored variety, known for its short, thick roots and excellent taste. It thrives in frost-free areas, requiring consistent moisture, proper thinning, and well-drained soil.

The MayFord Carrot Chantenay Karoo is a fast-growing, nutrient-rich variety, widely appreciated for its ability to produce high-quality, thick carrots. It is best sown directly into well-drained soil, ensuring a sowing depth of 1 cm, and requires consistent moisture for successful germination.

 

Seedlings should be thinned out at 10 cm intervals, with a final root length of 5–7 cm, ensuring uniform growth and strong root development. Pressing down the soil after sowing enhances germination, while regular watering encourages lush foliage.

 

Harvesting occurs approximately 90–110 days after planting, producing short, thick carrots that are ideal for fresh consumption or cooking. For warm growing conditions, cover the soil with straw or long grass to prevent excessive drying, but remove once seedlings appear.
