CARROTS 
FOR TABLE AND STOCK 
Good, sandy loam is best adapted for carrots of all varieties. The shorter 
varieties, however, can be sown on heavier lands, with good results. For 
garden, sow the early and short varieties at any time after January 1st. 
For general crop sow in the open field about April 1st, using two or three 
pounds per acre for rows sixteen to eighteen inches apart. While you 
get a good uniform root by thinning the young plants, it is not necessary 
to do so to get a crop of good, average carrots.
