Just been tidying up the veg patch and picked some carrots about 2 inches long.  Was just wondering if it is worth trying to let these grow a bit bigger and having them around Christmas.    Thought if I left them to enjoy this indian summer and then covered them when it gets colder, I might get some promising results?
 Any ideas??

 if there's somethings i can't seem to grow its carrots like many of my root crop failures i think its paper pot time for swede parsnip and carrots that's the only way i mite get a decent carrot not forgetting the good old carrot fly mite get its wicked way

I've put the word out for a paper pot maker perhaps father Christmas mite be able to put one in my stocking
