The first year of life, a carrot stores energy. The second year of life, it uses it to make flowers.

This won’t get you a new carrot, but it will flower & generate seeds. Plant the seeds to get new carrots

You can also simply buy 1000 carrot seeds for 2€.

Grade school science project. Not a real way to propagate. Produces discouraging results & drives people away from successful gardening.

From my attempts, it only produces a plant that flowers and produces seeds, not another carrot

5 years ago | Likes 15 Dislikes 0

That's kind of the point. From a useless carrot top, you get seeds to grow more carrots.

I did this with green onions once, and they were 100% tasteless. I assume because of lack of nutrients from actual soil?

5 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

You can stuff a green onion root down in some dirt & end up with an endless supply in less than a week.

Seriously, I've had a patch growing in my yard for 20+ years. Even thinned it out once or twice and the damn things still thrive.

I presume you don't live somewhere where temperatures get in the -20C every winter.

I love duplicating green onion in my garden, but I have to bring 'em inside starting the first of October.

I live near Chicago, it's not consistently that cold every winter. But I've never had them die. Most of the smaller ones do. But the main...

Just a heads up, carrots are 2nd season veggies, meaning they grow roots year 1 and flowers year 2. Your carrot top won't make another -/

Carrot to harvest, but WILL produce seeds you can plant. \-

PSA: this will not grow another carrot. There are so many things you can propagate easily, don't bother with carrots.

5 years ago | Likes 109 Dislikes 2

Yeah, we do this with parsley, nobody here actually eats carrot tops?

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

also came to say this. granted you can still eat the greens, but this dude obviously didn't grow another carrot lol

5 years ago | Likes 7 Dislikes 0

Can confirm. It’s been 9 months and all I got was a 3 ft stem with flowers and no seeds yet. Waste of garden space, but I learned from it

5 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

What kinda things would you recommend? Need some ideas for easy foods to grow in my veg patch next summer

Well you can still grow carrots just buy seeds instead

Ive not bought scallions in a year bc for a while I kept planting all of the scallion roots. Now I just snip the green parts as more grows

Try rosemary, dip cuttings in honey first. Basil cuttings will root in water then plant, same with mint. Chuck some of your next tomato in.

5 years ago | Likes 11 Dislikes 0

I read herb garden...

5 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I propagate tons of tomatoes. Start with a few plants of your chosen varieties. Every few days prune suckers. Stick them in some moist soil.

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Keep them out of direct sun for a week or two and keep the soil moist. By the end of the season you'll have tons of tomato plants.

Potatoes. Put potato in soil. Get more potatoes. Garlic too. Put clove in soil, get bulb.

(Plant Garlic in August if possible.)

That's very location specific.

True. Plant it in August IF you live on the northern hemisphere between 30°N and 60°N.

If you cant eat it, dont put it on the plate.

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

I guess I don't know what a garnish is. These greens are edible and have strong flavor. Great for salads

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

A garnish is decoration. Makes the dish look pretty but is not part of the dish itself.

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Ahh. Yep, definitely had that wrong. So it could just look pretty, but is edible. Idk. Do what you want.

Hence the 'propagate'

5 years ago | Likes 18 Dislikes 12

Ummm, no?!? Propagate as a word literally says that it's a way of generating a completely new full offspring, regardless of genetic origin.

5 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 5

Right, but it's only for creating a clone, you'd still need to replant: https://en.m.wikiversity.org/wiki/Plant_propagation/Cloning ☮️

Also, the vast majority of plants can asexually propogate with effectively a zero negative effect.

5 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

You linked to an article specifically about asexual propogation, only one type of propogation. The Most common form is traditional sexual.

5 years ago | Likes 8 Dislikes 1

Mmkay, but the post was about asexual propagation. And the comment's point was you weren't going to immediately get another carrot.

5 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 1

Then you can harvest the seeds, plant them, and next year you'll have carrots.

Thank you, this makes more sense now!

And this is not recomend due to sickness in the plants.

5 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 7

Not recommended because feminization of commercial crops will give you an unexpected growth version, but disease isn't a worry. /1

5 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

Most vegetable diseases are only a worry when repeatedly planting the same crop in the same dirt for too many years. /end

5 years ago | Likes 10 Dislikes 1

Also not the recommended for humans due to sickness...

What if you're down with the sickness?

I'd ask you to keep your fetishes to yourself, or at least keep me out of it.

I'm Disturbed by your comment.

Yeah ... but harvesting and propagating seeds is 1000x more complicated and precise than this fun video.

To be continued.

5 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

I just throw the seeds in dirt, scuffle the top of the soil, water and get carrots to grow. It’s an easy crop

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

So don't do it

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 3

I won't. But I also won't do the OP planting, because it's effectively useless.

5 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 6

It's useless when there's a global economy and you have access to carrot seed. Give it a few months, it'll come in WAY more handy soon!

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 2

(I typically have about a dozen or so pots going at any moment that can regrow veg as food. But carrots need two years, so can't at home.)

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Well... You wait till it flowers, collect the seeds, plant the seeds in early spring and collect the carrots in the autumn. Piece of piss.

Do they not need to be pollinated or whatever

5 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Good point - they don't self pollinate. You need two plants, and to pollinate them yourself. So more of a ball-ache than I thought...
