Fantastic!! Thanks for the help!

I like the lazy part!

I was trying to do a little reading on letting carrots go to seed. All of my veges come from heirloom seeds so I know I can save seeds. For my carrots, I believe what I have read it that basically, I have to leave them in the ground until they bolt and go to seed. Same as say Radish or lettuce, etc. That should be in their second year.

Has anyone seeded carrots? Am I understanding this correctly?

Now when this happens, do I let the flower dry on the stem or do I cut the flower head off during blooming and then allow to dry inside, or do I put a paper bag over the top of the flower? I have heard different things, so what do you gals think?

Thanks for your expertise!

Great!! I'll list some of mine now:

 

Roberson

Smith

Miller

Moore

Bailey ? maybe

Welch

Ferguson

Hurst

Lambeth (secondary - in connection with Hursts and Lambeths)

My maiden name is Miller, I dont have a lot of info but what I do know is they settled in the Louisiana/Mississippi area when they came down from through Canada from Germany, they were originally Muellers but didn't want anyone to know they were German so they changed it.
