isn't it a pain at the picking season for carrots when you come across carrots and they are all twisted, a way to stop that is to place toilet roll holders (the cardboard stuff) in the ground and sow 1 carrot seed in it, then what you will find is the carrots will grow straight down! good thinking eh, ;D

Hi   :)

In theory ,great!!, in practice  ::).........Alan

Another way would be to dig a deeper trough and back-fill with grow bag or riddled top soil. Bit of a chore but at least you get straight carrots and what you put in the ground does the ground good later on.

Yes, Danny - but I would love to know what your diet is if you can collect enough loo-roll centres to straighten 2 cwt of carrots?? = Tim

'Appen Danny's into creating his own fertilizer farm,too, Tim?
