Product details
How
Choose a Sunny, well-drained spot in the garden. Dig soil well and add Yates Thrive Natural Blood & Bone before planting. Form a groove about 1cm deep into the moist soil. Place the tape flat in the bottom of the groove (remember the tape can be cut to any length) and lightly cover. Keep well watered. Allow 10cm between rows. Thin young plants if necessary.
Care
Apply Yates Thrive All Purpose Soluble Plant Food regularly and keep seedlings well watered. Make successive sowings every few weeks.
Hint
For a constant supply of carrots sow at 4-5 weekly intervals. Protect from snails and slugs. Easy to handle - saves time and work, pre spaced seeds - less thinning out, versatile - sow tape any length required.
Storage
Store in a cool dry place away from direct Sunlight. Keep out of reach of children and pets.
