Little Fingers
60 days — 'Little Fingers' carrots are deep-orange colored, one-half inch by three inch in length with blunt tips, smooth skin, and small cores. Because the color develops early, they can be harvested at a young, tender stage for use as baby gourmet carrots. Each packet contains one gram, which is approximately 650 seeds.
Planting Instructions:
Loosen rich, well-drained soil to a depth of one foot, in a location that receives 6 to 8 hours of full sunlight per day.
Plant outdoors in spring as soon as the ground can be worked. Plant seeds ¼ inch deep, ½ inches apart in rows that are spaced 12 to 18 inches apart.
Keep moist until germination. Thin to 1 to 2 inches apart after the seedlings are 1½ inches tall.
Water as required and keep soil cultivated to control weeds.

★★★★★ Tasty Little Carrots

I expanded my garden in 2013 and included a couple of raised beds. I decided to try carrots. I simply sowed the seeds as soon as I could work the soil in the beds and walked away. I watered them during dry spells but they really did fine by themselves. I also planted the Chantenay Royal carrots. The Little Fingers Carrots are very sweet and tasty but I want a little bigger carrot for freezing for soups etc.-as the product description says some of these are very small.Great for quick pulling from the garden if want an early carrot for stirfrys etc.
