Carrot - Pariser Markt 4 - Early strain, rapid harvest - Fresh Seeds

Carrot Pariser Markt 4 is a very early variety valued for its flavour and attractive shape. It produces short, almost round roots with a rich orange colour and a notably tender, sweet flesh. It is excellent for eating fresh as a crisp snack, and it works equally well in juices and salads or cooked dishes. With its high carotene content and good texture, this variety is also suitable for freezing, home preserving, and storage, letting you enjoy tasty carrots from the first weeks of summer.

Sowing depth

Sow the seeds 1-2 cm deep. This depth supports quick, even emergence and helps the roots develop properly. Cover the seeds lightly, as sowing too deep can delay germination.

When to sow outdoors

Sow directly outdoors from March to June. A late autumn sowing in November is also possible for a very early crop the following season. Choosing the right sowing time is important for root quality, flavour, and size, so adjust it to local conditions and soil type.

Spacing

Space rows about 20-30 cm apart and aim for around 3 cm between plants. This gives the carrots room to grow, makes bed care easier, and helps reduce disease risk. Thinning after emergence supports the development of even, well formed roots.

Harvest period

Harvest from June to October. The roots are then firm, juicy, and naturally sweet. Early harvests are ideal for immediate use, while later harvests store well in cool conditions.

Growing

Pariser Markt 4 is an exceptionally early variety that performs well outdoors and can also be grown under cover. It copes with a range of soil types, though it does best in light, free-draining soil rich in humus. Regular watering, especially while the roots are forming, helps ensure even growth and strong colour.
