My container grown carrots should be just about ready now, I'll have to pull some up soon and see how they've done. You don't need huge carrots when you grow your own, they're so packed with flavour that small ones are just as good.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17436932004631816039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700847767094057681.post-11887493727275819502011-06-21T18:32:39.284+01:002011-06-21T18:32:39.284+01:00Wow everything looks absolutely perfect.

We are also growing carrots in a container and some in the ground too. We will just have to see what happens, but I will post updates on my blog.<br /><br />The tomatoes look great! Keep up the good work!<br /><br />MartinMartin and Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16156539747964207702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700847767094057681.post-57966785704816925662011-06-21T13:57:10.640+01:002011-06-21T13:57:10.640+01:00I hope my few container-grown carrots turn out to ...I hope my few container-grown carrots turn out to be as good as yours! The big mature ones are very cheap in the supermarket so it's hardly worth growing them, but those little finger carrots seldom make it as far as any shops!<br />I know what you mean about the weather. Drought in the Spring, now a deluge.

And we still haven't had much rain at all - it just comes in smatterings that don't last long and hardly wet the soil more than at the surface if that!Sue Garretthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08164518448098182276noreply@blogger.com
