If you like surprises, then roots might be one of your favorite things to grow in the garden because you won't really know what you're getting until you—Surprise!—pull them up. When the thing you want to harvest grows underground, you have to accept that most of the magic will happen out of sight.

And growing roots really is magical. Here's how to plant, tend, and harvest your own carrots, radishes, and beets.

This is Chapter 4 of my step-by-step gardening system. Grab a copy of my book,  Leaves, Roots & Fruit, to check out the other steps.
