What are the pros? great taste, productive
What are the cons? none
Love these carrots, Our garden is zone 4, and these did great even at a late planting time. 1st time growing these, planted on July fourth and started harvesting mid September. This was a 2nd planting in the bed this year following lettuce. I used a compostable weed barrier in the bed and kept them well watered until established. My kids love these and take 1-2 to school for snack daily. I have had a couple that were over 15 inches long, and 2 inches in diameter and were not woody and still just as sweet. will be planting more of these in the future.

What are the pros? Best tasting carrot
What are the cons? can't grow in spring
For those of you who had flowering problems, you cannot grow this in the spring. Increasing daylight hours induces flowering in this variety of carrots like some other varieties. Look at all the reviews that complained of flowering. They are all in late spring or summer because they planted in the spring. The summer solstice is around June 20-22, so plant in July at the earliest and they should act like other carrots becaue daylight will shrink until December.. I planted some in spring for the heck of it and almost all flowered while others were not flowering. I planted some in July and I picked them in October and November and they were delicious, sweet, and crisp. They were the best tasting carrot. It is a shame if people are dissuaded from growing them because they flowered in the Spring.

What are the pros? I like the idea
What are the cons? I dont konw it never did much
First off Im not good at all at carrots. Having said that my purple carrots and my normal carrots at least grew; these did not grow at all. Many of the carrot tops grew to a good size. Maybe it got too hot too quick and I read somewhere tomatoes and carrots could grow close together. Ill try these again, like now and hope for good fall.

What are the pros? Easy Germination
What are the cons? Early flowering impairs yield
After relatively easy germination this variety produced flowers before the carrots were ripe. This seems to be a general problem with this variety.
What are the pros? None
What are the cons? Lots of flowers, no carrots.
I planted eight varieties of carrots, this was the only one that went to flower right away before producing any carrots. And not just one or two, every single plant went straight to flower.
