  • Central Asia is the crossroads of the carrot world, where the two main varietal forms -- Daucus carota atrorubens and Daucus carota sativus -- met and intermingled as they made their way around the world. The Uzbek Golden carrot is a tasty, hardy grower that we think should be better known in American gardens! If you struggle to grow carrots, this is a great one to try.

    **Correction: Uzbekistan grows two million metric tons of carrots each year, not two metric tons as we say in the video.

      Teeko Train thank you but I believe public schools are amazing and I wish we could/would provide as individualized experiences for everyone. We just move around a lot so homeschooling fits us. And we can fit in amazing gardening videos!

    Just received these as free gift seeds from. Baker’s Creek! Can’t wait to plant them!
    Update! It’s ten days since these were planted and they germinated beautifully! I planted them in little spaces here and there where there was room available. Can’t wait to see if I can grow carrots!

    they look so appetizing. one of those foods that you take right out of the ground and eat. dont have to cook. i thnk thats why they are so popular, that and the sugar content and antioxidants. dont juice, that takes away the fiber.

    What's up with the green shoulders on these carrots? Is this an unavoidable characteristic of this variety of carrot? Typically with carrots green shoulders are to be avoided because they make that part of the carrot taste bitter.

    • @RareSeedsBC
      @RareSeedsBC  4 роки тому +3

      It is typical for this variety, however, it shouldnt be as bitter you are used to on that green part
