Not only does the Wild carrot 'Eskimo' have certain preferences regarding how much water it receives, but it also cares deeply about how you provide that water. In fact, if you don't use the proper watering technique, you risk harming your tomatoes. The best way to water Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is to apply the water directly to the soil in a slow and gentle manner. You should not pour all of the water into the soil at once, and you should not do overhead watering for your Wild carrot 'Eskimo'. Although you should water slowly, you should also water deeply to ensure that all of the soil in which your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' grows is sufficiently moist.

If you find that you have overwatered your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' and you are concerned about the associated risk of disease, you should intervene immediately. Often the best approach for an overwatered Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is to uproot it from its current growing location. Once the plant is out of the ground, you can allow its roots to dry a bit before planting it in a new growing location. Ensure that the new growing location has soil with good drainage. If you grow in pots, you may also want to move your plant to a pot with more or larger drainage holes. In the case of underwatering, all you will need to do is increase the frequency with which you supply water to your plant.

Overall, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' requires a significant amount of water throughout the growing season. To meet that high water need, you'll need to water early and often throughout the spring and summer. During the earlier parts of the growing season, you should water your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' about once or twice per week. As the season progresses, you should increase your watering frequency. You may need to water it twice per day or more during summer, depending on the weather. After your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' have gone through their major seasonal growth phases, you can reduce the frequency of your watering to about once per week until the end of the growing season.

Since Wild carrot 'Eskimo' are incredibly popular, with many professional and amateur gardeners growing them successfully, we have a pretty clear idea of how to care for these plants. That understanding includes specific knowledge about the precise volume of water an average Wild carrot 'Eskimo' should receive. Generally, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' will require about 1 - 1.5 inches of water per week. That volume should be dispersed evenly through your weekly watering. As the weather gets warmer, you may need to supply more water, but in most cases, two inches per week is a good baseline amount.

Underwatering and overwatering can both occur as problems for your Wild carrot 'Eskimo', and both these problems can manifest with similar symptoms. For example, foliage discoloration and wilting can both result from either overwatering or underwatering. When your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is underwatered, its leaves will be curling and drooping at the beginning. You will see a bunch of leaves turn less vigorous. Underwatering is also likely to cause stunted growth and poor overall development as both the flowers and this plant require a high amount of water. Overwatering is more likely to lead to disease, including rot. Overwatering may also lead to unpleasant smells rising from your plant's soil. The symptoms of underwatering will show up quicker than overwatering. Overwatering can also be evident in soil conditions. Mainly, if you notice a lot of standing water or waterlogged soils, overwatering is likely to occur.

As alluded to above, your Wild carrot 'Eskimo''s water needs will repeatedly change throughout the seasons. During most of spring and summer, you should water your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' about once every week. As the heat of summer arrives, you should plan to increase your watering frequency to once or twice per day. In the late summer and fall, towards the end of the harvest period, you can reduce your watering frequency to about once per week. After harvest has ended, you can cease watering as your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' has reached the end of its life cycle and will require no further soil moisture. The maintenance schedule of Wild carrot 'Eskimo' will require you to alter the amount of water you provide depending on the plant's current growth stage. Early on, especially if you grow your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' from seeds, you'll need to provide water often enough to maintain consistent soil moisture, which encourages root development. When the plant becomes old enough to produce flowers, it will likely need even more water. During the fruit development growth stage, your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' will likely need the most water out of any growth period, at times requiring water more than twice per day. Following that phase, the water needs of Wild carrot 'Eskimo' will decline significantly.

Whether you grow Wild carrot 'Eskimo' indoors or outdoors can also play a role in how you water them. Wild carrot 'Eskimo' that grows outdoors may receive water from natural rainfall, which will reduce the amount of supplemental water you should supply. However, it is incredibly rare for rainfall to adequately replace your watering entirely. Plants that grow indoors, along with any Wild carrot 'Eskimo' that grows in a container, will need to be watered more frequently than those that grow in the ground outdoors. If you choose this route, please make sure that the plant gets enough water by checking the soil moisture within your pot often to keep your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' healthy.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is a kind of annual plant so it doesn't need much pruning. You only need to cut off and clean the diseased, yellow or dropped leaves and stems during its growing period. This will help your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' to stay away from pathogens infection.

During the growth of the plant, yellowing, drying and spotted leaves are produced, and these spotted and discolored leaves need to be trimmed off. If the whole piece of leave is discolored or infected, you will need to cut it off completely. In other situations, you will only need to cut off the discolored or infected part on certain leaves. Wild carrot 'Eskimo' above the ground will die and dry up in the winter, and the dead plants need to be cleaned up.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' leaves are delicate, so take care not to score or bruise them. Unless the leaves are withered or heavily discolored, do not prune the leaves from the lowermost branches unless they’re damaged. They typically grow the largest, so they supply the plant with critical energy to keep it growing right. Please prevent the wounds from water after pruning until they are fully recovered. Remember always sterilize the tools before pruning. When the pruning is finished, please throw all the waste leaves and stems into the trashbins to avoid diseases and bugs.

Sterilize all the tools before pruning; unclean tools will pass pathogens to the plant through wounds; Prune on sunny days because the new cuts will be infected by pathogens if they're distained by rain or water. Throw all the waste leaves and stems into trashbins, they will easily rot and attract diseases and bugs

Expect to prune your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' every week if it’s growing well or every two weeks if it grows slowly. It is always good to prune it on sunny days because if you prune it on rainy days, the rainwater will distain the cuts and cause the whole plant to be infected.

Because Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is an annual plant, the pruning should take place basically during the seasons that the plant grows rapidly. During the growth of the plant, yellowing, drying and spotted leaves are produced, and these spotted and discolored leaves need to be trimmed off.

Exact needs vary, but a minimum of 6 to 8 hours per day is a good rule of thumb for Wild carrot 'Eskimo' to grow and produce fruit.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' requires full sun, meaning that it should be grown in a location that gets direct sunlight that isn’t blocked by obstacles such as trees, fences, or buildings. In general, the faster the plant grows, the more hours of sunlight it will need. Morning sun is best for photosynthesis.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' should not need to be protected from the sun in most climates. Those who live in a desert or near the equator may find that the sun is too harsh for the types of plants they want to grow, but this is the exception.

All plants need sunlight to convert into energy. Plants that have a short growing season need even more light and energy than those that grow slowly, as they need to complete all their processes to grow and produce fruit within just a few months. The first symptoms of insufficient sunlight in Wild carrot 'Eskimo' are pale and yellow leaves that are not able to generate enough chlorophyll to keep their healthy green color. The leaves may eventually fall off, and new growth is small and weak. The plant may become leggy and sparse as it stretches toward the available light. Finally, without enough light the plant will not be able to produce large, high-quality edible leaves or fruit. Wild carrot 'Eskimo' needs to devote a lot of energy into growing leaves and fruits, so if there isn’t enough light available for it to convert, the harvest will suffer.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' can get sunburned from intense sunlight, especially when coupled with high temperatures and not having enough water. Afternoon sun tends to be most likely to burn plants. Scalded leaves develop faded patches of light brown to white on the areas at the top of the plant that are exposed to the most sun. They are especially vulnerable to this right after being transplanted from a shadier location to being in full sun. Transitioning plants gradually or providing them with a barrier while they are adjusting can help prevent sunscald in young plants. In many cases, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' develops leaves that are large enough to protect fruits from the strongest rays of the sun. However, if intense sunlight is in contact with fruits, they can also be damaged. Avoid over-pruning those protective leaves so that the fruits don’t get burned.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' may become unbalanced if it gets significantly more light on one side than the other. Ideally, you can plant your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' in a location away from obstacles that might block light, and where the distribution of sunlight is even on all sides. Be careful about planting tall species next to those that grow closer to the ground. It may not be obvious when the crops are first planted, but over time the taller plants may begin to block the amount of sunlight that can reach the shorter plants. Morning sun helps to dry dew and precipitation, which helps prevent infection from diseases that can develop when water sits on the plant. If you are watering or irrigating your Wild carrot 'Eskimo', this should be done in the morning.

There is an ideal temperature range that makes Wild carrot 'Eskimo' feel at home. Under these temperature conditions, it's unlikely that you’ll have any issues with cold or hot damage to the foliage, but changing leaf colors can absolutely be a sign that Wild carrot 'Eskimo' isn’t happy. Try to keep your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' well within its preferred range of 70-85℉(21-30℃), but don’t panic if the temperature creeps up past 85℉(30℃) during the day or down to 70℉(21℃) at night.

If your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' happens to be planted outside, then there’s not much you can do to try to move it indoors. However, you can certainly provide cover in ways that will help it survive any extreme temperatures that may arise unexpectedly. For instance, you can always use a few stakes and some cloth to put together a shade tent that will block out much of the sun’s intense heat from direct sunlight exposure. Similarly, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' can be protected from the extreme cold and especially chilly winds by building a small greenhouse around the plant, which will create a greenhouse effect and warm the plant up. This can be done using garden stakes and any sort of clear or translucent plastic you may have around; if you have greenhouse plastic such as polycarbonate laying around, this works perfectly. Remove the greenhouse once temperatures warm up to 40℉(10℃) at night.

Generally speaking, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' needs to stay within its preferred temperature range all year long. However, that doesn’t mean that care should stay the same all year long. During the warmest months of the year, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' will need a little extra shade and a bit more of a breeze to help it cope with the hottest days. On the other hand, it may need to be moved away from chilly windows and doors during the cooler months in climates where temperatures drop below 40℉(10℃) at any point in the year.

Keeping your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' at the right temperature can be fairly simple. Depending on where you grow it, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' can be fairly easy to accommodate. For indoor growing, you can easily move the plant to different locations within your indoor space that best meet its temperature requirements. Avoid placing it near air conditioning vents, heaters, doors that open frequently, or drafty windows. It is a little more difficult to control the temperature around your Wild carrot 'Eskimo' if it’s grown outside. Of course, if it’s planted in a pot, you can simply bring it indoors when the temperatures outside get too hot or too cold for Wild carrot 'Eskimo', but otherwise, you may need to take different measures to protect it from extreme heat or cold that may damage it irreversibly. Try placing Wild carrot 'Eskimo' under cover to protect from both the harsh sun that can overheat it and any cold wind that could be potentially deadly for your plant.

Wild carrot 'Eskimo' typically grows quickly, and uses a lot of energy to create the root vegetables we enjoy. Along with sunlight, oxygen, and water, Wild carrot 'Eskimo' species require nutrients to grow and produce roots. While these nutrients are generally present in garden soil because of the natural organic matter decomposition in and on top of the soil, there may be some cases where the nutrients are not abundant enough to support healthy Wild carrot 'Eskimo' growth. In these cases, fertilizer provides the boost that the Wild carrot 'Eskimo' needs.

Apply natural fertilizer to your soil to prepare it for planting. There is no particular time frame you are required to follow, but be sure you have enough time to incorporate the fertilizer into the soil and water it thoroughly before putting seeds or seedlings in the ground. In general, one application of fertilizer is enough to keep Wild carrot 'Eskimo' growing well throughout the season, but you can do one additional application once the seedlings have started to establish themselves if you want to boost their yield even more. Just be careful not to use too much fertilizer that could damage the plants.

Avoid fertilizing when conditions are dry, and always water plants thoroughly after fertilizing. All types of fertilizer are most effective when delivered through moist soil. Don’t use high-nitrogen fertilizers unless developing a lot of foliage is more important to you than the root crops. Be careful not to let fertilizer touch the base of the plant or splash onto leaves or stems, since this can cause the plant to burn.

Most people grow Wild carrot 'Eskimo' in order to harvest the roots, although in many cases the foliage is also edible. To promote a healthy root system, choose a fertilizer with more phosphate and potassium compared with the amount of nitrogen. Bone meal and kelp are great choices for natural fertilizers, but chemical fertilizers can also be used. Just make sure the fertilizer doesn’t contain a large amount of nitrogen, since that is a less important nutrient for this particular vegetable. The best way to determine what type of fertilizer to use for growing Wild carrot 'Eskimo' is to take a soil sample from the part of your garden that you are planning to use. Testing the soil will tell you which nutrients are needed, along with other important factors such as density and pH level. All of these factors contribute to your plant’s success, so it is a good idea to think of it holistically and treat the soil accordingly.

Fertilize Wild carrot 'Eskimo' by mixing an organic fertilizer such as bone meal or kelp into the soil prior to planting. If you need to fertilize again during the season, do so by using a layer of compost or well-rotted manure as mulch around (but not touching) the base of your Wild carrot 'Eskimo'. This material will break down gradually, allowing nutrients to soak through to the roots below. For liquid fertilizers, dilute the fertilizer with water according to the instructions for your particular crop and spray it on the ground around the Wild carrot 'Eskimo', being careful not to splash the plant. Granular fertilizers can be sprinkled around the base of the plant or between rows, or worked into the top layer of soil to keep the granules from being washed or blown away.

Too much fertilizer (especially chemical fertilizer) causes the plant to become stressed. Fertilizer burn is caused by excess salts that are contained in chemicals, which can dehydrate plant cells and cause yellowing and wilted foliage. Be aware that fertilizer burn symptoms can also look very similar to other issues including nutrient deficiency, so be sure to consider all the factors when diagnosing the issue with your Wild carrot 'Eskimo'. Too much nitrogen fertilizer can cause energy to be diverted to foliage growth, leaving the roots and other parts of the plant with less resources. This can be especially disappointing when harvesting a plant that looks very healthy and vigorous above the ground, since the produce it creates doesn’t match its appearance.
