    So these are the first harvest from a medium pot of carrots. I could have let them grow more but was just curious to see how they were doing. So pulled up one pot

    One is crooked, another looks very dry and another looks strange with pimple kind of bumps.

    Nematodes can cause that, google ' carrot nematodes' and look at the images.

      Ya but take a close look at the one in the center. It looks very dry.
