Growing Carrots and Kohlrabi and Lettuce and tomato transplants


Growing carrots in Tucson isn't super easy in Tucson, in fact, this is about it for our crop this year. They were small and some were a little bitter, but we enjoyed each and every one! The white ones are actually parsnips and the small round guys are "thumbellinas", which were quite tasty!


I had never eaten kohlrabi, much less grown it, but it's good.  It's tastes like a cross between broccoli and cauliflower.  We steamed the greens and boiled the peeled root (the big ball).  Patrick loved it!

Here's some more of what we've harvested and what's on the way........
