Hi,

All of my carrots were coming out of the ground stunted and with "knots"
on the tips so I decided to leave the rest in the ground longer to see
if they would get bigger. Well, I was out picking carrots again and they
really haven't grown much even though the greens on top are really lush
and bushy. Is there something that I am doing wrong? My soil isn't rock
hard yet it isn't super soft either, maybe I didn't water enough? Also,
will the carrots get sweeter tasting the longer I leave them in the
ground? Thanks again for the help.
