Clay soil is a challenge when growing carrots, but Fire Wedge Hybrid Carrot powers through it. The big, thick, 7-9 in. roots are a brilliant red-orange with a satisfying crunch. The roots have a rich, sweet flavor and are tops for raw vegetable trays, salads, cooking and juicing. Because of its yields, flavor and garden performance, Fire Wedge is one of our top choices for gardeners with clay soil. When sowing carrot seeds, we recommend sowing radish seed with it. Radishes germinate and mature more quickly than carrot seeds, so they mark the rows and conserve space in the garden. 80 DAYS.
