Garden Journal, The Carrot Harvest
<center><h2>Hello, hivers and garden lovers!</h2></center>

It took me about a week to harvest my carrots this year, the weather was not very cooperative.  I knew I was running out of time to get the carrots pulled out before the ground started to freeze, but we had several days of cold rain between the day I started the harvest and the day I got the last of the carrots out.

I grew my carrots in my raised bed this year.  The soil is not too dense, and carrots grow pretty well in it.  This is the raised bed before I started the harvest.

![DSCN6925.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/EowH4kWyhJDTR3nUfxv12pTH13AucCJWam3upEJ1a7AxAi7oEw7V3dMKq5CebLYr5LH.JPG)

The ground was not packed, so the carrots came out without too much work.  I harvested the first section of the raised bed, the part that gets shade from the plum tree.  The rail car makes a nice movable platform for the tote I used to put the carrots in after pulling them.

![DSCN6926.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/EonkyfMTnt8KFoSRTP9ivaetyF5NPaKuQAgLpUpbeAWjtkVobhGkVTWdLUj76d2AGmS.JPG)

I got lots of little carrots from the first section, perhaps because of the shade.  Of course, they're still edible.
![DSCN6927.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/EoEq53V2Vo5Wtp22G3kggLdYUgoKnVXWC2LqHXK26DEB4Cq7VxvHb2GAbe2boW7WdjN.JPG)

I got a fair amount of carrots from the first section, considering their size.

![DSCN6928.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/EonjZzKYwJyCezrydKNZpG52Lk93HSqTCmEDd9YdScoZrDaqz1CHqTkTGVai3vsLpVE.JPG)

I had to wait a few days to harvest the second section due to the weather.  I didn't get any pictures of that because it was getting dark by the time I was done for the day.

The third section harvest kind of surprised me.  I wasn't expecting all that much due to the late planting and lower germination rate, but I got a lot of really nice carrots from the last section.  This photo is from right after I finished pulling the last of the carrots.

![DSCN6932.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/EoChi958qmhhZp9aHfizaDKsGZu5KniXVWnnBRYULrsHYGidgrRUaYSjYYoPixks3u2.JPG)

Here's a picture of the complete harvest.  I was keeping all the carrots in the greenhouse to keep them cold, but not risking getting frozen.

![DSCN6934.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/amberyooper/Eq37YpiaPBaJj5m6eoFrUc8boZQ2zJQhZHdZQ3a2SqTeesqyuw9ia3uHuM5659uPH8q.JPG)

I sorted through the carrots and separated the little ones from the rest, and also separated the white carrots from the rest.  To me, the white carrots are not as good tasting as the rest of them.  I only grow them because they're part of the mix when you buy the "variety" seed packages.

I don't have enough storage space for all the carrots in my basement refrigerator, so I put all of the good sized ones in first and left the small ones that wouldn't fit, and the white ones out in the greenhouse.  I covered them up with old towels to keep the light off them.  It's cold in the greenhouse now, but it's not freezing in there yet.  Now I just need to process all the small carrots before they freeze.  I'll probably just feed most of the white carrots to the deer this year.  They'll be happy to eat them.

That's all I have for this post, I hope you found it interesting!

You had a good harvest, congratulations. And I think it's the first time I've ever seen white carrots. We don't have those here.

Fantastic production of carrots. In this freshly harvested state, you can even make carrot juice and mix it with other fruit juices. It's delicious

Congratulations for the work @amberyooper  It is at this moment when one sees the efforts crowned with success.

Greetings.

Any particular reason why you grow the variety pack? You got a decent harvest.

Fascinating. I have totally different conditions when it comes to temperature. The coldest temp in winter I need to worry about is around 51F and then summer can get around 90F unless its a heatwave which is less common.

I hope to grow year round and when I look at the efforts of Northern Hemisphere farmers in far northern areas, then I have hope because my conditions are less... severe.
