Too much water can cause carrots to crack. They should be kept weeded (a clean mulch can reduce this job). Also, lightly place soil over exposed roots to prevent cracking.

Can't wait to plant these!!

"My order arrived very quickly! I am anxious to get these in the ground so I will be starting some inside soon to get a headstart hopefully. Can't wait!"

Mike B. (5/5)

Beautiful carrots

"Was really pleased to get organic carrot seeds. I haven't been able to find many organic seeds or starts, so I was excited to try these. The germination rate is average compared to other seed brands, as long as you provide the right conditions, you should have some sprouts in just a week or 2. Have been table to taste these yet, but based on what I've read, they should be nice and sweet carrots."

Freestef54 (4/5)

So excited for our carrots!

"We put a small greenhouse up this year so I’m really excited for these carrots to grow! (Will update with greenhouse pics as well). We have a yard but opted to do it this way because we have little friendly creatures outside who unfortunately like to eat our plants. I am SO excited because our carrots have already started to grow although it will be a while before we get the final product. I tend to get impatient because I wish my plants grew to full size immediately (haha) so this is helping me to work on that as well. I can’t wait to taste these and have my neighbors now also growing a garden because we started ours! Very exciting!"

Vamberly (5/5)

Great carrots to grow!

"This product came in a great package' no seeds had spilled out. There are very clear instructions and I would say they were pretty simple to follow and grow. I was able to grow some nice carrots to use in dinners. Home grown food tastes so much better and I'm glad I was able to get these carrots 🥕"

Brittanyu14 (5/5)

Quick simple seeds

"Took about two weeks for a sprout. I’m still waiting on it to grow and ripen for harvest. The packaging was standard for seeds. I can’t wait to taste my homegrown carrots!"

Jacquelined (5/5)

Amazing seeds

"These carrot chantenay seeds by ferry morse are amazing! Not only was the process super easy but they gave me great carrots! I did have great soil and amazing weather this season as well."

Hayleighv (5/5)

Exciting Crops to Come

"I am very excited to start eating these carrots that have all started from tiny seeds! These have been planted for some time now and I have already seen roots growing and carrots forming underground. They seem to grow at a nice pace and will keep me on my toes until the carrots are ready to be eaten."

Julietted (5/5)

Great seeds!!

"They germinated in about 16-20 days. I haven’t gotten to eat any yet but I’m super excited to try them when they are ready. They grew great out in my garden. Surprisingly they survived and no pests ate them. I definitely recommend these seeds!"

Marissalee024 (5/5)

So far, so good

"My rating is based on the ease of use and product packaging. Given I’ve only had these seeds for about two weeks, I have not had any germination or seedlings yet. The product is very easy to set up and are very clear on how to get the seeds ready, what growing conditions are needed, etc. I am excited to see how many carrots these will yield and the flavor!"

Rishb (5/5)

Hopefully the give a great harvest!

"I just got these planted in the last week. So no growth yet, but I’m super hopeful that they will give me a harvest of some yummy carrots. Carrots are one of my favorite vegetables!🥕 "
