How about an extra long video showcasing all of Mark's raised garden beds in the main veggie patch?

I really enjoyed this one. Mark's garden tours are always my favourite videos. I can't get over how well everything grows for him! I'm not that far away (couple of hours drive) but the lack of sun on my balcony makes everything struggle and grow much more slowly.
 
I thought it a little odd that he didn't have at least a small garden bed full of carrots. Maybe he and family don't eat many of them, but carrots should do okay there throughout the winter, at least some varieties will. Who grows that much food and not have some carrots? Mark does! 😂
 
He has grown carrots in the past - he did a video back in late 2016 about growing them:



Perhaps he just ran out of space with everything else he's growing this season!

I know, that's why I was a little surprised that he had no beds with carrots in them. He seemed to have just about every other plant that can be grown in his area during the cooler months. Maybe space was a thing, I wish I had the space he's got! Actually, no I don't, doing up and managing my own little space is enough work for me.
 
Perhaps the weather was also a factor. Our winter hit late, and even now it's not a true winter. We barely had temperatures below 10C . On top of that we're having a really wet Winter, which is unusual too. Many of my crops aren't doing well. Heck I haven't even successfully grown lettuce this Winter because the weather keeps stuffing it up!
