Default Carrot competition follow up

[quote=dni_dave]Fellow Veggers

Full of enthusiasm resulting from my first year as a grower I challenged a couple of people to a carrot competition.



Well - the time is approaching as more people than I first thought have taken up my carrot competition. The trouble I now have is what rules I put in place.

Does anyone know what the judges mark the carrots on? Is it just pure length? Thickness at the top and length? Do you have to have the whole root or can the very thin bit at the end be broken off and not get marked down?

If anyone knows the answer I would be extremely grateful. I've even been in to town and bought a cup for the winner!!! Might end up entering them all in a local show to be completely fair.
