With each nine-to-inch carrot containing high levels of nutrients, these carrots can provide a great addition to your diet.

Suggestions Chevron Down Chevron Forward

Too much water can cause carrots to crack. They should be kept weeded (a clean mulch can reduce this job). Also, lightly place soil over exposed roots to prevent cracking.
