Growing Information

Growing Tendersweet Heirloom Carrot

‘Tendersweet’ is a beloved heirloom carrot and All-America Selections Winner prized for its exceptional sweetness, smooth roots, and tender texture. The deep orange roots grow straight and uniform with blunt tips and a nearly coreless interior, giving them excellent eating quality from end to end. Their crisp texture and rich flavor hold well after harvest, making ‘Tendersweet’ a favorite for both fresh use and storage.

Sow ‘Tendersweet’ directly in the garden about ½ inch deep. Space plants 2 to 3 inches apart and grow in full sun. This cold-tolerant variety also performs well in containers.

Ready to harvest in about 72 days, begin checking the roots as they approach maturity and pull them once they reach your preferred size while they are still crisp and tender.

Sweet, smooth, and versatile, ‘Tendersweet’ is excellent for fresh eating, juicing, everyday cooking, and storage.

Unbelievable Tomatoes

This was my first year for ordering seeds from Seed 'n Such - The Tomato Seeds are unbelievable. No Joke - the Snacking/Salad Tomato plants are 12 feet tall. I am going to have to stand on a stool to get the top one. Everyday is like an Easter Egg Hunt, there are tomatoes to be picked and no joke about 30 to 40 a day. Every day different neighbors get a bag and looking at the plants it is going to be that way until October. Unbelievable. Of course there is no better tomato than the Mortgage Lifter (love the story of it) those I hog for myself there is no better tasting tomato. The Fooled You Jalapeno Peppers are another every day pick - California Wonder Bell Peppers the same lots of them. I think every seed I planted took. My neighbors love everything.
