All not lost on the long carrots


Unusually I've hardly staged any long carrots this season due to the failure of my first two sowings. The first failed in the cold snap in March and the 2nd struggled through the mini heatwave in April and May. When I eventually got some going it was far too late for them to be any good in the earlier shows. However, for Sturton I was able to pick up a 1st and 3rd as they'd had that extra month or so to grow. Although they were nice clean specimens they were far smaller than I've been used to in recent seasons
