Johnny's Selected Seeds Carrot Seed

Pelleted seeds are coated in a clay-based material to make them larger, rounder, and more uniform in size. This makes them significantly easier to handle and space accurately during planting, which helps prevent overcrowding and improves overall germination success.

The deep purple skin will soften and fade during the cooking process. If you want to maintain the striking contrast between the purple exterior and orange interior, these carrots are best enjoyed raw in salads or as a snack.

You should plant these seeds at a depth of 0.25 to 0.5 inches. Because they are pelleted, ensure the soil remains consistently moist during the germination period to help the coating break down properly.

This variety typically reaches maturity in 73 days. As an F1 hybrid, they are bred for consistent performance, so you can expect a fairly uniform harvest window once they are ready.

Like most carrots, Purple Haze thrives in well-drained, fertile soil. It is important to ensure your soil is loose and free of rocks or heavy clumps to allow the 7–8 inch roots to grow straight and uniform.
