Nantes Coreless forms blunt, cylindrical orange carrots with relatively small tops.

A space where it can thrive

Grow as a cultivated garden crop in a bed or suitably sized container. The illustrated nursery pot is a presentation, not a recommendation for the mature plant’s root space.

Ask about availability

Availability, size, pot and price will be confirmed in store. Pictures illustrate the plant type.

Your care routine

Light

Full sun in an open position.

Watering

Keep the shallow seedbed continuously moist until seedlings appear; then water evenly as roots lengthen.

Soil & drainage

Deep, loose, stone-free soil. Avoid fresh manure and a compacted layer that causes forked roots.

Temperature

Plan sowing for the crop’s preferred season. Protect young plants and containers from severe frost; local conditions affect timing.

Planting

Direct sow shallowly; do not transplant carrot seedlings. Thin gently so roots have room.

Harvest

Lift when roots reach the intended size, loosening soil first rather than snapping off the tops.

Through the seasons

A spring sowing gives summer roots; later sowings can mature into cool autumn weather. Keep seedbeds from crusting over.

When your plant needs help

  • Thin to roughly 4–10 cm and give roots deep loose soil; do not transplant them.

Pets & little ones
