Today I found out, before the 17th century, almost all cultivated carrots were purple.The modern day orange carrot wasn’t cultivated until Dutch growers in the late 16th century took mutant strains of the purple carrot and gradually developed them into the sweet, plump, orange variety we have today. Before this, pretty much all carrots were purple with mutated versions occasionally popping up including yellow and white carrots. These were rarely cultivated and lacked the purple pigment anthocyanin.
WOO WOW .
At 2:02, it looks like you have a designed bed off to the right... Could you show us a picture of that garden bed?? I am just curious....
Carrots originally were red! Farmer Shari Sirkin talks about different varieties and some of the history…
some say purple and others say white
I'm in southeast Texas and can't get even carrot plant to grow for me...I've tried starting them inside, outside but in a small greenhouse, and straight in my small patch of ground I have to grow in...any advice for me? I've tried three different varieties...I can get some to sprout but never grow past a couple of inches tall and then they just die. Thanks for your informative videos!
I live in Albuquerque NM and I have the same problem as Mike. What does grow doesn't get very big and then dies off. I thought that maybe it is too hot here?
It's actually just grassy area that runs down the slope of the hill, next to the steps.

To see which colours carrots can be?
I noticed that there are carrots that have hard middle part and soft middle part. I want the soft middle part. How to get soft middle part?
Look for coreless carrots
Not trying to be rude but carrots were originally purple all the way through and on the outside, red was a color later developed I'm the 17th century.
How is that rude? Its more arrogant than rude :)
Lol
And it's incorrect. Both red and purple carrots are known as the first. Iran claims they started there, Afganistan claims they started there. There's also an argument to be made for the heirloom yellow variety that is also originally from the middle east. Best not to try to correct people on the internet...
I’m I the only one who purposely searches random plant farming videos
Hell yeah it's me!!!

The yellow & orange carrots are absolute rubbish, not fit for human consumption. But since it is available throughout the year, why not stuff them in our gobs for the sake of it!
Ciaran because they are not the original carrots, and consequently the orange variety were cultivated and reproduced by man, i.e., not natural...
Have you ever eaten a carrot before?
