Never got to planting carrots this spring before it got too hot/dry.
If I plant them now I’m fairly certain they’ll survive the winter, but will they continue growing normally next year?
Southwest Michigan, USDA Zone 5/6.
Looks like it can be done if you get the min and growing and mature before the freeze. I don’t grow carrots because they’re so inexpensive where I live. Wisconsin grows onions, carrots and potatoes in the entire middle of our state where the glaciers ground the soil into a lovely sandy loam. ;)
The TOPS won’t survive the winter, so carrots won’t ‘perk up’ again come spring, but storing them and digging them as needed through the winter months can be done.
