Oops I Did It Again!

Seed greed? I couldn't turn down the special offer of 5 coloured varieties with my £5 off voucher from T&M. As I already had three orange varieties on order that's a hell of a lot of carrots. It's kill or cure for me this year for carrots!


I like a challenge.

  1. I don't know if it's seed greed or seed addiction! Well, it's better then some other addictions that I can think of

  3. You missed the white carrots, better get more, lol. I bought a package of multi-colored carrots off eBay even though I know root crops don't do well here.

  4. Sounds a bit like Carrot wars! You can do an official carrot trial Mal!

  7. Hi Mal, any tips on how to grow straight carrots? You've probably seen the embarassing carrot I grew last year!

  8. Hi JoJo, If they forked that would have been because the soil was too nitogen rich. You should avoid adding manure to soil in the same year you are growing carrots. But I haven't tracked down your pics yet!
