Important! This carrot is a real gourmet, as it should be true representatives of the princely family. It does not tolerate heavy clay and even loamy soils.

She likes light loam or sandy loam soil, well seasoned with humus. Such soil should contain a lot of humus and be permeable.

What kind is such and care

Carrot Yaroslavna

Heavy loamy soils, when dried, form a surface crust. Such a crust by all means prevents not only the germination of seeds, but the development of the whole plant. Root crops in such a bed lose their natural beauty and varietal qualities. They become twisted and branched. Extremely negative carrot “Yaroslavna” applies to podzolic soils with high acidity. Although her water requirements are low, she endures any drying of her native beds very hard. She needs watering and fertilizing regularly.

Besides:

  • this variety of carrot, although not very resistant to disease, is extremely resistant to cracking;

  • the high content of carotene and the versatility of application will not leave people indifferent to this truly princely variety.

Testimonials from truck drivers

Olga, 49 years old, Tambov
I have been planting Yaroslavna carrots for the 3rd year now. I almost never use it in preparations. For this, there are varieties with a large yield. Yaroslavna is eaten by her children and her husband. I have never met a tastier variety of carrots, although I regularly purchase seeds of new varieties.
Nikolai Ivanovich, 67 years old, Kazan
Seeds of the Yaroslavna variety, last year, my granddaughter bought me at a sale. I bought it because it was cheap. How did she guess. I don’t particularly pursue a large harvest – I don’t need it. But Yaroslavna pleased. My wife even made jam out of it. But the fly spoiled the crop a little – I didn’t keep track. I recommend it to all gardeners.
Maria, 38, Novgorod
I have been growing carrots “Yaroslavna” for three years. I liked the variety both with the harvest – I collected almost 3 kg from a meter-long garden, and with taste. Carrots are juicy and very sweet. Children are delighted – you gape a little, they will thin out everything. In my garden practice, this is the best variety. Recommended to all neighbors.
