{"product_id":"west-coast-seeds-little-fingers-carrot","title":"West Coast Seeds (Little Fingers Carrot)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe ultimate in baby carrots, Little Fingers is a fast-maturing Nantes type with smooth, golden orange skins, crisp texture, and a tender core. Short at 8-10cm (3-4\"), Little Fingers are well suited to container growing and may succeed in heavier soils.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sweet flavoured, uniform roots are perfect for pickling or eating fresh out of the garden. For best results, plant these gourmet carrots in well-cultivated soil from March to July for continuous harvests right into early winter. Bred in France to develop their characteristic orange colour earlier than other varieties, these carrots can be harvested early at 8-9cm (3-3.5\"). Don't let them stay in the ground beyond around 68 days or they begin to lose their gourmet qualities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"height: 298.071px;\" width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLatin Name\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cem\u003eDaucus carota\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Sprout\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e14-21 days\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Maturity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e60 days \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExposure\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 19.5952px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eFull-sun\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGermination Rate\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e60%\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 59.7443px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 59.7443px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eStarting\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 59.7443px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eBecause carrot seeds are tiny, they need to be sown shallowly. The trick is to keep the top-most layer of soil damp during the relatively long germination period. Water deeply prior to planting. Direct sow the tiny seeds 5mm (¼”) deep, 4 seeds per 2cm (1″), and firm soil lightly after seeding. Make sure the seeds are only just buried. Water the area with the gentlest stream possible, and keep it constantly moist until the seeds sprout.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 140.351px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 32.0486%; height: 140.351px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 67.5997%; height: 140.351px;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-avenir font-weight-bold text-black font-size-1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdeal pH: 6.0-6.8. The softer and more humus-based the soil, the better. When soil is dry enough in spring, work it to a fine texture. Broadcast and dig in ½ cup complete organic fertilizer for every 3m (10′) of row. Avoid fresh manure. Carrots will become misshapen, but still edible if they hit anything hard as they grow down into the soil.
