I've been growing carrots off and on for years. I've never had much luck. Either they are long and skinny or if decent size, eaten by bugs.
These carrots took off! I started them in the late spring and after they sprouted, the only thing I did was keep them watered. This was the best harvest I've ever had. I balanced and froze them. In late July I started another batch for fall harvest.

I spent a ton of money from 3 different seed companies this year on carrot seed, now several thousand seeds and none of them sprouted. I have been gardening and growing carrots for over 65 years, but complete dud this year, i Never have trouble with products from you so assuming it is related to pollinization given 3 different companies]
