Stored carrots
My first storage, and cooked some yesterday.
They are hairy and need peeling but the taste and smell of them is out of this world. I always thought that storing them would lose flavour. Not so in this lot. Could be rose tinted glasses but we are very pleased. Baz |

They will start to regrow soon so ,as you say, get hairy but it won't harm the flavour. -- Regards. Bob Hobden. Posted to this Newsgroup from the W of London, UK |

I dug all mine up in early November as a precaution because the previous year we had snow snow snow from November onwards and they all rotted to orange coloured soup! Baz |

When is the best time to plant and then harvest the carrots for best taste - I have heard baby carrots are nicer. I have always been around friends and family who grow their own veg - but perosnally I am relatively new to it!
Any rough guidelines anyone could give me for planting times, seasons etc.... only got a small garden but I might as well put it to good use! |

Rough guideline is to make a barrier to stop or halt the carrot root fly. Baz |
