I pulled all of my carrots out of the ground the other day. They were all pretty strange-looking, but very tasty. I think the reason for the "mutant" carrots is because my plot wasn't tilled deep enough.
I'm in the process of expanding my garden plot, so I am going to focus on tilling double-deep for next season. Also, I think I will plant smaller carrots (4-6"). My onion and carrot plots will be twice as large as they were this year. I'm growing radishes this year on the deck, and hope to put in a large crop next spring. Still getting cherry tomatoes, too. Lots of little "greenies" on the vine!
