Tips for Growing Carrots with EM-1 Microbial Inoculant
Follow these simple tips to prevent small, deformed or unsightly carrots from ruining your harvest:
Clear the soil of any large objects such as rocks or bark.
Avoid planting in clay or compact soil. Carrots grow best in loose soil with lots of organic amendments like compost and EM-1®
Plant your carrots in rows that are 1 to 2 feet apart.
When the plants are 4 inches high, thin the plants to 2 inches apart. This will allow room for the roots to develop.
Plant in either full sun or part shade.
Keep your carrots free of weeds. Weeds will absorb the nutrients the carrots need for healthy growth.
Water weekly with a solution of EM-1 and water. 3 tablespoons to 1 gallon of water. This will encourage large root development and help protect against common diseases.
With regular use of EM-1 there is no need to rotate your carrot plants into different areas of the garden. The healthy microbes, minerals and nutrients all work together to keep the soil in optimal condition.
