70 days. Negovia impressed us from the time the seed sprouted to when we enjoyed the carrots after they had a lengthy storage period. The vigorous plants show strong germination and growth from the start and good disease resistance. The plants produce nice, tall, 11-12 inch tops and boast 7 ½-8 inch roots that are smooth, orange, and fill out to a blunt-tipped, smooth-skinned carrot. They retain their fine, crisp texture and sweet flavor even after extended storage. Nantes type. IR: Ad, Ar, C, MA, PM.
