Have harvested a handful of carrots so far. All of them have been... pretty blah. In fact, almost even bleh, not suitable for eating raw. Bitter, and a bit woody. Probably ok for hiding in muffins or whatnot although I haven't tried that yet. Scooter has enjoyed that as much as ever, and Lucy likes them too, but me, not so much.
Past years they've been delectable -- so sweet, juicy, crispy.
Oh well!
The carrot seeds I broadcasted a few weeks ago are coming along, looking good, though of course still very small. They were MUCHHHHHHH easier to thin this way, compared to the thickly sown rows I had done with the spring plantings. Maybe this batch will taste better!
