I have carrots in my garden....I have been watching the foliage grow so beauitful. Seemed like forever for little orange tops to come popping up...But look at the roots on these carrots....they are zig-zag like....I think they grew down deep enough to reach the real Texas soil...Hard rock like dirt...and they couldn't penetrate it so they grew zig-zag roots...think I will have to till into that dirt next year. Maybe the reason for my low growth this year with all my plants... 1st year for growing in Texas for this Northern girl..... Live and learn right...but I will enjoy the few little things I have grown for this year and start planning for next year....these carrots smell so good.

I've always wanted to grow carrots...but knew they'd never stand a chance in this horrible soil. Maybe I will have to upgrade to I can live the dream...lol!
