Product Description

The Berlicum 2 Carrot is a classic variety, highly valued for its sweetness and crisp texture. Its long roots, which grow to about 8-10 inches, have a cylindrical shape and a deep orange color. The flesh is juicy and tender, making it ideal for fresh eating, juicing, and cooking in soups or stews. The Berlicum 2 is a vigorous plant with strong foliage, making harvesting easier. It is particularly well-suited for deep, loose soils, where it develops straight and well-formed roots. It thrives in temperate climates and is suitable for both spring and autumn planting.

Cultivation

• Soil type: Prefers loose, well-drained soil but adapts well to heavier soils if they are well-prepared.

• Watering frequency: Keep the soil consistently moist, especially during germination; avoid waterlogging.

• Light exposure: Requires full sun, with at least 6-8 hours of direct light daily.

• Temperature requirements: Thrives in cooler conditions, ideally between 60-75°F (15-24°C).

• Fertilization: Use a low-nitrogen fertilizer to prevent excessive foliage growth.

• Pruning: Not required, but thinning seedlings ensures proper root development.

• Common pests: Watch for carrot rust flies and aphids; use floating row covers or organic treatments if needed.
