Great for juicing or eating fresh, and especially fantastic as a baby carrot. A great all-purpose carrot that won’t disappoint.
[84 days] The Red Cored Chantenay carrot is a popular, all-purpose carrot with a very sweet flavour and crisp texture. The tapered roots reach to about 8cm in length and end in a stump. The shoulders are broad, making these carrots very satisfying to pull. The short size makes this carrot a great choice for container planting, but it will grow equally well in the garden or allotment. Unlike most carrot varieties, the Chantenay will even do well in clayish soils.
This variety matures early in the season and is generally harvested from July through October.
How many Chantenay carrots do you get from one plant? Each of your Chantenay seeds will produce one carrot.
Will Chantenay Red Cored carrots germinate in cooler weather? Yes! Carrots tend to prefer cooler weather to thrive, they germinate best when the soil is at 10°C. Your seeds should begin to sprout approximately 7 days after sowing.
How long do Chantenay carrots take to grow? Chantenay short carrots mature in around 65 to 75 days. They grow to around 5 inches tall and 2 inches in diameter.
