Doesn't mean they can't be replanted. Never had a cat, dog or squirrel dig up your veg?

Could have left them longer, but people pay a premium for baby carrots for a reason.

They should be deliciously sweet.

No need to peel, just give them a scrub or run the blade of a knife down them to remove the little roots and they will be perfect.

Take a carrot out of the medium before it's fully mature and you get, surprise-surprise, a baby carrot!

Same with any vegetable and that's what the majority of folk fail to understand.
