Alas, every one is affected by carrot fly and some very badly. It
hardly seems worth the expense if this is the result. The seeds cost
about 3 times the cost of ordinary carrot seed, and for what.

Has anyone else on the NG tried this type out before, and with what
results.

I think it's one of the ones we've tried, but haven't had great germination
from. I've found the more traditional deterent of growing with alliums and
marigolds has worked better for me. Although this year all my carrots are
tiny! (could be cos I accidentally sowed chanteray!)
