 Here we are in zone 6, Missouri Ozarks Mid-November here. We've we've had our first couple of nights Below where temperatures drop below freezing only down to about 31 30 degrees just for last couple nights Here's my stevia plants And I have a couple of volunteer carrots plants that grew in here with my stevia I'm gonna go ahead and harvest these to see if we Got any Good carrots Okay, what we have here apparently ours is wild carrots some as you can see These carrots are white and They're not very big and These are wild carrots. I've eaten wild carrots before Not particularly good. Of course, they're good survival food. That's all you got to eat and I'll give these a try Just for kicks and giggles bigger one Big as my thumb But in my experience in the past has been the wild carrots for them They're a little bit woody Not particularly good to eat But you can eat the greens too while carrots also call Queen Anne's lace because the flowers are White look like Queen Anne's lace, but they're Biennial which means That they don't flower the first year they grow they flower like all carrots They flower and produce seeds in their second year. So you leave your carrots in the ground Let them come back up the second year That's when they'll produce their flowers The birds nests There are a couple of poisonous plants that look similar to wild carrots including hemlock Very very poisonous and so I mean you can tell the difference But before you go grabbing everything that looks like a wild carrot and eating it Just be aware of there are a couple of poisonous plants That look similar to this not hard to tell the difference If you know what to look for but if you're not terribly familiar with it You could get a hold of a poisonous plant and hemlock is very poison. It's deadly poisonous It's easy to tell especially from the flowers The carrots form a white flowers that are closer together and Eventually become the birds nest look to them Whereas the poisonous plants the flowers are kind of scattered out a little bit more Wild carrots survival food. I Decided to save the white carrots the wild Wild carrots. I decided to try those myself and as far as the greens are concerned decided to give them to the rabbits and I tell you what They love them. They're eating them up. Well, I'm going to do a little taste test here on this wild carrot I'm gonna have it with my salad over here tonight and see First taste a little bit definitely tastes like Carrot actually not bad. They taste like carrot. It's not woody I think some of the some of these roots may be kind of a chewy The main body of the carrot actually It's pretty good. I'm going to chop it up and eat some of my salad This is survival doc reminding you be prepared and enjoy your wild carrots. No, no This is survival doc reminding you be prepared or be prepared to be fleeced
