Product Details
Unwins Carrot Flyaway F1 Seeds are the perfect variety for those looking for a way to avoid carrot fly! These fantastic carrots are much less susceptible to carrot fly attack than other varieties.
With a deliciously sweet flavour, this early cropping variety produces Nantes-type carrots that can be grown in a container or veg patch.
Harvest: Aug to Nov
Sowing Outdoors
Sow thinly, 1 cm deep, in shallow, pre-watered drills in soil that hasn’t been manured in the last 12 months. Keep soil moist at all times. Protect early sowings with cloche or fleece.
Thinning
Thin seedlings to 5–8 cm apart. Avoid crushing the leaves, as their scent attracts carrot root fly.
Aftercare
Carrots do best on light, stone-free, fertile soils. Use fleece to protect against low-flying carrot root fly. Roots store well if cleaned and packed in boxes of dry sand or compost.
