Was away about a week. One carrot decided to grow super tall and looks like it will make a big flower. The carrot under isn't as big as it's brethern that I harvested. This is a new variety of carrot for me called "short and sweet". Never seen this with my other carrots.

Edit: I didn't notice that the image failed to upload. I have tried adding an imgur link.

Plants just do weird shit sometimes.

I currently have a flower plant that is growing about a foot-and-a-half-long... tentacle out of the middle of one of its flowers, just hanging in space. What is it? I have absolutely no idea. It's just there.
