SECTION 1
CARROT
Carrot, (Daucus carota), herbaceous, generally biennial plant of the Apiaceae
family that produces an edible taproot. Among common varieties root shapes
range from globular to long, with lower ends blunt to pointed. Besides the
orange-coloured roots, white-, yellow-, and purple-fleshed varieties are known.
Wild carrot (subspecies D. carota carota, also called Queen Anne’s lace) is
native to Eurasia and is thought to have been domesticated in Central Asia around
1000 ce. Prehistoric seeds have been found in archaeological digs, suggesting that
the plant was used medicinally before the domestication of its edible root.

HOW TO
HARVEST
CARROTS
One reason carrots are such a great choice for a home garden is their
flexibility. You can keep planting these easygoing roots every few
weeks for most of spring, summer, and autumn, so you always have some
ready to harvest in your garden. Your carrots' flavor will change
depending on the weather and how long you've let them grow.
You could harvest one carrot every couple days to see how the taste
changes, but there are easier ways to tell when your carrot is most
likely ready to eat.

AND

CARROTS
Choose a fertilizer that has little nitrogen and more potassium
and phosphate - 0-10-10 or 5-15-15 will work well.
