Carrot seed

Carrot seeds are initially obtained by new players from a University of Worship. See Vegetable Seeds

At present the method of growing new carrot seeds is unknown. Apophis said on March 26 2009 that someone had achieved it, so it must be possible with the current technology level and resources of Egypt.

I have been able to get 2 carrot seeds in return along with 8 carrots. I have been trying to duplicate it but have had no luck. - Waizujin

Research

I (Ashana) am going to be spending a lot of time figuring out what does NOT produce carrot seeds. If you have any additional information (especially if at some point you grow a seed, even if you don't know what you did, or when (check your achievements)) contact me in game. I also have a supply of carrot seeds to hand out to would be researchers.

If the seed trigger is an event, it is assumed that the event is "stored" until the next time your try growing a seed. As is the case with seeds and masterpiece meals.

Carrot seeds may only be produced by people that can belly dance =

This is a false rumor that was created for a venery.
