Tendersweet Carrots - How sweet are Tendersweet Carrots? One gardener describes them "like candy for supper." Some people describe them as the sweetest carrots on the market and oh-so-crisp. The uniform, deep orange-red roots are smooth skinned, fine grained and nearly coreless—and they grow 9-10 inches long, and often longer. The gorgeous color stays during cooking and freezing. Year after year, this choice variety receives rave reviews from gardeners for their sweetness and flavor.
This aptly named carrot is the sweetest carrot anywhere! Long, tender roots and very rich orange color; nearly coreless. An excellent all-around carrot for cooking, canning, pickling, baking, and juicing. Plant Tendersweet carrot seeds in full sun or partial shade for a bountiful summer harvest.
As you know, home-grown carrots are higher in vitamins A and B than their store-bought counterparts, not to mention calcium and phosphorus. Their green tops are nutritious as well—try chopping them and sprinkling them in the tops of soups and stews, or work them into cooked dishes just before serving to retain their delicate flavor and texture (while maximizing their nutritional impact).
Carrots are a cool-weather crop, best sown direct as soon as the soil is workable in spring, and sown successively every few weeks until midsummer. Heavy soils are one of the few serious problems for carrots, so prepare the soil thoroughly before planting or, if you are in a clay soil area, consider growing in raised beds or containers. Carrots also need moisture to keep their roots from splitting. With these needs met, they are virtually trouble free.
If you are growing this blend for baby carrots, sow the seeds about 2 inches apart, pushing them just ¼- to ½-inch into the soil. If you are going to let them reach full-size, either sow the seeds an inch apart and then thin them when the seedlings emerge, or space them 4 to 6 inches apart. Onions make excellent companions in the vegetable garden. You'll love this colorful mix of quick-to-finish, tender-sweet carrots.
