These are my first ones, so I am so proud of myself. I received a free package when I bought some other seeds and I thought why not. As you can see, they are red ones. I forget the name since I didn't keep the package.
I planted the seeds and then thinned them out and planted those. I figured I might get a few. I lost some when we were away and they didn't get enough water.
I may not have a great harvest, but I think enough for several meals at least. I picked some last week but since I was out of town, they didn't last until I got back, so I picked another bunch.
I am going to roast them with some other veggies. I am sure they will be great just because I grew them. Oh, it is the little things in life that make me smile!!!
Have you grown your own carrots or other veggies?

I forgot carrots come in different colors! :) These look delicious! I tried carrots the year before last when we lived in East Texas. They didn't get enough water at all but I had a couple little baby carrots. Trying again in NW Louisiana soil. We'll see! :)
ReplyDeleteCindy,
DeleteI didn't know they came in different colors either until they sent me the seed package. I watered them a lot and I had them in pots. I was so thrilled and can't wait to plant more. Hope yours does well. Let me know.
Hugs,
Bev
I love the bright red color and see you have a red(?) or is it a green thumb? Thanks for hosting and have a great week.
ReplyDeleteNancy,
DeleteI don't know if I have a "green" thumb or not but I was so excited with these carrots. They tasted great too. Can't wait for the next batch.
Hugs,
Bev
