Our current seed has yielded white, purple/black and orange and they are all lovely. It is a bit to get used to but if they taste fine I suspect cross pollination or someone muddled up the seed.

My Carrots turned white years ago, cross pollination i guess. we love them white and kept the seeds.

My daughter decorated and planted carrot seeds at Bunnings. The bunnings seeds were on cardboard like matches that you stick in the soil. There was multiple seeds on each piece so when do i split up the plants so they have room to grow? The green tops are still very thin and fine but are starting to get that carrot looking leaf.

I wouldn't as carrots don't like root disturbance. wait till some are edible size and use them as baby carrots

when thinning out carrots cut the heads off the ones you would normally pull out ...that way you will not disturb the soil .happy gardenjng

plant carrots with onions. the fly is attracted to the carrot smell and powerful smell of onions confuses them.
