Hi BB, i can't grow carrots outside so i've built a greenhouse just for them. It has 2 course of blocks all around which is filled with sand and bore holes filled with compost for growing them. I can get about 100 carrots in this, both the small and large variety, and no problem with the carrot fly ;D . Will put a pic on and show you what i mean as i'm not very good at explaining things.
