Growing Information
Growing Nantes (Coreless) Carrot
‘Nantes’ is a classic open-pollinated carrot valued for its smooth texture, rich orange color, and dependable performance. The half-long roots develop a small core and tender, fine-grained flesh without the pithy texture found in some larger carrots. Quick to mature for early harvests, this time-tested variety also holds well into winter when properly mulched.
Sow ‘Nantes’ directly in the garden about ¼ inch deep. Space plants 1 to 2 inches apart and grow in full sun. This cold-tolerant variety also performs well in containers.
Ready to harvest in about 66 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 reliable, ‘Nantes’ is especially well suited for canning.
