Carrot TASTE OF CHILDHOOD

The carrot variety "Taste of Childhood" is a mid-season, high-yield Nantes-type variety, characterized by cylindrical root vegetables with a blunt tip and a small core. The length of the roots is 14-17 cm, and the weight ranges from 100 to 185 g. They are straight, smooth, and bright orange in color, with juicy and sweet flesh, making this variety particularly attractive for summer-autumn and early winter consumption. The roots are resistant to cracking and bolting, ensuring their high quality and good storability after harvest. Bulb maturity occurs approximately on the 50th day after germination, and full harvest is possible on the 90-105 day. Carrots are well-suited for cultivation on light and loam soils, as well as on peatlands, provided there is sufficient soil moisture, as the roots contain up to 84-88% water. The variety is cold-hardy: seeds germinate at a temperature of 2-3 °C, and seedlings withstand a temperature drop to -5 °C, allowing for successful cultivation even with early sowing and winter sowing. Sowing seeds is recommended in furrows at a depth of 1.5-2 cm, and thinning is carried out upon the appearance of the first two pairs of true leaves to ensure optimal growth. Due to its characteristics, "Taste of Childhood" is an excellent choice for obtaining early bulbous produce of high quality, which is distinguished not only by its attractive appearance but also by superior taste qualities.
