Ehh, What's Up Doc?

I planted a couple row of carrots on Sunday afternoon.

This year I planted them width wise versus length wise, so instead of one 8' row, I have two 4' rows.  Really doesn't make much of a difference other than I now have freed up half of the raised bed to plant something else and I'm thinking more peppers...

I planted the below "Touchon" carrots last year but they didn't do very well at all.  Even though I have half a package from last year, I tossed them and opted to try the "Nantes Half Long" above this year.  Gardening is all about trial and error to determine what works best for you.

We have oodles of wild rabbits again this year, UGH, and I've not yet seen any babies.  They're already doing a number on my perennials, like they did last year, and eating my echinacea, balloon flowers, spiderwort and even the milkweed, GRRR!

So, will need to fence in the above raised bed before the carrots take off, otherwise they'll become rabbit food...
