Carrot is a cool-season, biennial relative of celery, parsnip, parsley and dill. It is native to Eurasia. They are a popular home garden item because they grow quickly. Carrot roots develop best under cool temperatures and in fine-textured (sandy), well-watered soils.
Cause: Meloidogyne hapla, a nematode that also attacks other vege-table crops. The Columbia root-knot nematode, M. chitwoodi, is not an economic problem on carrots.
Carrots are normally bright orange-red in color, and there are a number of different types and shapes. The Juwarot Carrot is the only carrot with this much Vitamin A. No other carrot has this amount of A or Beta Carotene. Suitable for cooking, canning, raw use, and propagation.
FAMILY CHARACTERISTICS Daucus carota var sativus (Carrots) are grown for their prominent root structure and characteristic flavor and color. Carrots are grown as a cool season vegetable.
Use or prepare soil that is deep and friable to avoid misshapen roots. Do not plant in areas where young plants may be subject to long periods of cold temperatures, which favors bolting.
