Our carrot fly produces the dark eaten spots like you have. I have to grow a particular carrot variety from the UK that is carrot fly resistant.
How does your garden grow?

Are you sure that you didn't plant Ginseng?

The guy in the alley wearing the trenchcoat said they were carrott seeds.

Everything I grew from seeds DIED upon transferring to the garden. It was a coolish windy day and I knew nothing about getting plants used to being outdoors. What a bunch of work! These few carrotts did survive, kind of.
It's been a lousy year for gardening here, and elsewhere from what I'm hearing. Cold weather crops are doing well; I picked a bumper crop of cabbage yesterday. OTOH tomatoes, cucumbers, and squash have been a big disappointment. I just planted my carrots a few weeks ago, hoping for a late season crop to store through winter. It will be interesting to see how they do.

We have been having an extra cool summer in our always cool climate. So I am pleased to have my medium sized tomatoes start to produce.
Are those a "Heritage" variety? They look a lot like what I raised for a couple of years... the name escapes me.

They are actually 3 different types. The one on the right is mortgage lifter. Next smaller is Cosmonaut Volkov. Smallest is Seattles Best

Another year, same BS. Four Tomatoes ripened on the vine and were GREAT. Many others green not appearing anywhere close to being ready to eat. Then, comes the FROST!
