How to prune carrot 'parmex'

Thin seedlings 2–3 weeks after germination (earlier than standard varieties due to compact size). Snip surplus seedlings at soil level with scissors to achieve 2-inch spacing. Remove any yellowed or diseased tops by cutting at the base. No other cutting is required.

Thinning: once; disease removal: as needed. Carrot 'Parmex', a short round-rooted variety, needs no pruning. Thin seedlings to 2 inches apart early on by snipping at soil level. Its compact growth habit means the tops rarely cause any issue. Remove diseased foliage if it appears, but otherwise leave the plant undisturbed until roots are ready to harvest.
