One thing i have never managed to grow is carrots, this year it took 3 sowing to get anything to come, then loads did together......doh.
These are paramax, and otherwise known as tonights tea.
Should have been a bit bigger but i was very bad at thinning them. Nesxt year i plan a little more military precsion with my spacing, 3 seeds every 4 inches like one of the old boys on my allotment site.

Brilliant carrots Dicky i would like to have a go at those , when did you sow them and how long before you picked them? well done .
I grew those Dicky (Paris Market) free with some mag. I preferred them cooked to raw :)
I think these ones come up from an end of april sowing, going for cloches at the start next year.
They were lovely, very sweet
Look really good, bet they tasted yummy to !! ;)
They look dainty little characters. I bet they taste rather sweet with a little best butter chopped with them :)
