Thank you. that's what I needed to know. And since I'm
racing weather and rodents, the tops will come off. Anyone know of good
price supply on Buckhorn totes or collapsible vented plastic
boxes?

I have found that if I leave the tops on, the carrots are ruined within days, even in sealed totes. They get soft and pliable. I only leave the tops on when I pull them the day before market.

How long do carrots with tops last in your walkin coolers? I have mine in Buckhorn totes, but have been taking tops off what we are harvesting now, assuming they'll start looking ratty within a couple weeks. Should I be stockpiling carrots with tops?Beth SpaughRehoboth Homestead, Peru, NYFarm Fresh Food Club CSA - http://rhomestead.comBecome a Fan on FacebookGarden fresh vegetables, organically grown, and pastured chicken, duck, and geese"How we eat determines, to a considerable extent, how the world is used." - Wendell Berry"Without power over our food, any notion of democracy is empty." - Frances Moore Lappe
