carrots

yes, read the back of the seed packet, some will say 'good in containers' , just make sure the soil is deep enough.

thanks steve will let u no how they do.

I've grown baby carrots in window troughs before, with great success. Good Luck with yours.

I just transplanted my baby carrots into a larger pot this afternoon looking good healthy green leaves dont know if any carrot beaneath.

also if you grow in containers chances you will not have a problem with the carrot fly - The female flies lay their eggs in the soil beside the host plants. These hatch about 7 days later depending on the temperature. The larvae move to the roots attacking the rootlets first. They develop through three growth stages over a 4 to 6 week period, then return to the soil to pupate for a further 2 to 4 weeks. Usually there are two generations per year, the first emerging in late April to early May and a second in late July. They overwinter as larvae in roots or as pupae in the soil, though a few adults may survive the winter.

But in containers you will not have a problem - because the carrot fly does not normally fly above about 18 - 20 inches above grownd level

Ken how long before we would get fresh carrots.
