Propagation: Carrot seeds?, 1 by zhinu

I have a carrot that I think is going to seed. My daughter planted them last summer. Too late for them to do anything and not really in a great place, but she really wanted to plant them. So, we left them over the winter. Some of them turned into carrots this year. She was impatient so they were small but carrots. I would normally just let it seed and see if it self seeded, but I don't want them there. I'm not worried about them breeding true, just edible. I figured this would be a good way to show Sage how to grow a plant from plant to new plant.

So, first is this going to seed? Second, will the carrots grow from seed off the plant, they were commercially bought? Third, how do I collect and plant the seeds?
