chantenay carrots

[soph696]

Hi everyone!!!

Is it quite easy to grow chantenay carrots? I can not seem to find any information about growing them and my little girl loves them.

Thank you,
Sophie

Urrmmm...they're just a variety of carrot aren't they????
Dead easy to grow if it's warm enough!!!

Nice to hear your daughter loves them!!

Chantenay are regarded as an early main crop, intermediate size, stump rooted and with little core. I usually sow mine between mid April and mid June to harvest from September onwards. The Amsterdam Forcing and Nantes types can be sown earlier - late March if it is warmed up and will be ready July.

They're as easy as any other carrot (but 3 times the price in the supermarket, prolly because they are much smaller)
