I decided not to bother with the early sowing of carrots this year. It was a miserable spring, with a late snow. Yesterday I added old mushroom compost and chicken manure, and mixed it into the top few centimetres. Today I sowed pinches of carrot seed and then covered with a thin layer of sowing compost, and watered it. The weather at the moment is lovely - yesterday and today at least - 14°C and sunny.
The garlic is all looking very good, hard to tell which type looks best. I put carrots in all the empty squares in the garlic box. I grew carrot in that box last year too, but the other one has all sorts of odds and ends in it so this was easiest and quickest.
Might try and plant out the potatoes tomorrow.
There is a lot of grass everywhere, especially among the strawberries. I collected some sea weed last weekend and have put some around the rhubarb.
