1 lb. of Carrots for dinner

[gary350]

Garden soil is frozen carrots are hard to pull up. Frozen carrots are brittle, wiggle them and they break in half. I managed to pull up about 1 lb. of carrots for dunner. Carrots are a nice winter crop to have we can pick carrots for 5 months as we need them. I have a mix of, orange, red, yellow, carrots. Red is the best flavor. Better flavor than Danvers.

Here carrots are growing in my garden 9 months out of the year.
I like to stagger plant to guarantee fresh carrots continuously but do a main crop for canning that matures just before high temps set in.

Carrots grown in nutrient rich soil are by far the best tasting.
