Jivit F1 Hybrid Nimrat Carrot Seeds, Nantes Type Hybrid, Deep Orange Colour.

Description

The carrot is one of the most cultivated vegetables in the world. Its consumption has spread widely since at present it is available all the year round. The part of the carrot that we consume is its root, of which there are various shapes and tastes. It stands out for its carotene and vitamin A, B, and C content. Carrot requires a relatively long growing season than the other root crops. The optimum temperature is 7.2 to 23.9°C for germination and 18.3 to 23.9°C for growth. The best root color develops at 15-20°C. Temperature higher than 30°C, particularly in later stages of development, induces undesirable strong flavor and coarseness in the roots.
