Why Do Carrots Grow Short And Fat Instead Of Long

Question From: Rice, Washington, United States
Q: Do you know why so many of my carrots turned out to be more like small beats instead of long like they were supposed to have been? Thank you, Marcia

Dense soil is usually the issue. Try a raised bed and you will have better luck. Best And Happy Yardening, Nancy

Comment: I do have my carrots and other vegies planted in a raised bed. I used a carrot seed packet that didn't describe what kind of carrots were in it and I think maybe they were a mix of those small carrots and regular carrots. That's my guess. Thanks, Marcia
