  • Sweet Candle Carrots - Thompson & Morgan

    Hi, this is my first post as I have just joined this group but wanted to share with you the success I have had with Thompson & Morgan Sweet Candle Carrots.

    We have lived in France for the past couple of years but still visit the UK often. A friend of ours who is a prize winning vegetable grower and is now a judge for the RHS told us about this variety so we bought a couple of packets earlier this year.

    The crop has been brilliant, we have had a long hot summer and only been able to water occasionally, maybe it's the soil or maybe the weather but we have had plenty of laughs with some of them. It's certainly been a conversation piece with French friends 

    Hope you get a giggle seeing them too

    Dear mods - can you have a word with Admin and have a NSFW division added

    Jan, they're great. I can't grow carrots but do like the ones that make me giggle - much more fun than the straight ones

      Hello Jan & welcome to the Jungle. Did the carrot soil have any manure added as this can lead to deformed carrots & parsnips.

          Go on, give me a clue NSFW?

          Some of us live in the past, always talking about back then. Some of us live in the future, always planning what we are going to do. And, then there are those, who neither look behind or ahead, but just enjoy the moment of right now.

          Which one are you and is it how you want to be?

            NOT SAFE FOR WORK - some of those carrots were very risqué

              I do like a strange shaped veg can also be caused by hitting stones as they go down. Welcome to the vine.
              Another happy Nutter...

                I hate acronyms, it's like a foreign language that excludes the of us who don't know!

                  What sort of risky work do you do with carrots, Jay-ell?

                  Welcome to the Vine Jan. Not sure how impressed T&M will be at seeing their name linked with risky carrots - other suppliers are available

                    Indeed there are. Shop around. There is quite a range of prices for this carrot seed.
