      Same here - they lose their texture completely.

      I believe the farmers cover the carrots with straw once the tops start to die down so that there are always some available to harvest fresh through the winter.

        I grow mine under enviromesh and leave it on even after the carrot flies have gone so suspect that helps insulate mine but also that heavy clay soil might be more problematic

        Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

        Which one are you and is it how you want to be?
