How to Grow:
Sow Chantenay Royal carrot seeds directly into well-prepared soil once danger of frost has passed. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in rows or blocks, and keep soil consistently moist to support even germination. Thin seedlings early to allow room for the stocky roots to develop their full shape. This variety thrives in full sun and benefits from regular watering, especially during root formation. For extended harvests, plant successive rounds every two to three weeks.
Harvest & Use:
Harvest when roots reach their characteristic plump, tapered shape. Loosen soil gently to avoid breakage. Enjoy fresh or store in a cool, humid environment for long-term use. Chantenay Royal’s dense, sweet flesh makes it ideal for juicing, roasting, soups, and winter storage.
