      You need to start preparing for this in the fall, choosing and setting aside large, even, undamaged root crops. Store them in the cellar, wrapped in paper. In the spring, as soon as the opportunity arises, you need to dig up the soil, make a narrow trench, lay the carrot seeds obliquely in it and cover it with soil.

      Root crops grow tall branching bushes. Near each of them, be sure to stick a stick 1 m high and tie it up. Inflorescences-umbrellas are formed on the lateral shoots, on which the seeds will later ripen. There can be a lot of shoots and umbrellas, and the umbrellas will be small. To prevent this from happening, it is necessary to pinch and remove excess shoots, leaving about a dozen of the strongest with large umbrellas.
      Large seeds will also be tied on them. When the umbrellas are bent inward and dry, they need to be collected and dried in the shade; then rub between the palms and winnow the seeds.
      Carrots are a cross-pollinated crop, so seedlings of different varieties cannot be used.

    I bought a large bag of Shantane at the market, sowed, as always, two rows of onions, two carrots. The onion is like soldiers in the ranks, but the carrot shoots did not wait, although the expiration date was on the package: 2023.
