Early Nantes 2 carrots at 10 weeks

10 weeks in, and I couldn't resist scraping away a little soil to check if the carrots are growing or not.  It's quite frustrating just seeing the green leaves and hoping something is going on under the ground.  Anyway, I was happy to see that there is something definitely carrot like there.

As you can see, it is not much, but still encouraging to see something there!  I've added a second photo showing how the carrot seedlings look without the top bit of soil being scraped away.


The second crop, which is a month behind, so now 6 weeks old is also growing well.
