The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different sowing dates on yield and some agronomic characteristics of different carrot varieties ('Romance’ F1, 'Nansun’ F1, 'Maestro’ F1, 'Soprano’ F1 and 'Vac-64' F1). The results of the study showed that the effect of sowing dates on the agronomic characteristics was significant. While the highest yield was obtained from 'Soprano’ F1 at 4th sowing date, the highest plant height, the highest leaf length, maximum number of leaves, the highest carrot weight, the highest carrot length and the highest carrot diameter was obtained from 'Romance’ F1 at 2nd sowing date, 5th sowing date, 4th sowing date, 3rd sowing date, 4th sowing date and 2nd sowing date, respectively.
