Wooo-hoooo, we've got winter carrots! This was our first attempt at wintering them in the ground under straw, and it worked. I'm so tickled. And I've already got plans for a 'better' system next year. LOL

S.O. reports that they are spicy, not very sweet, much like this variety has been all along. Maybe beginning to get a little woody (based on eating one carrot). These are 'Nelson' hybrids, planted 8/7.
