Main orange carrot crop is Touchon, the carrots aren't huge but you get good
serial crops in the same bed all season.
The colored carrots are pretty much the same cultivars sold under various
creative names. I recommend Baker Creek as a source and there they are called,
since you are an astronomer, Solar Yellow, Lunar White, Atomic Red, and Cosmic
Purple. Baker Creek's carrot seed are ungraded and so when they say you get
600 seeds, it is more like 2000.
