Carrots started in ground

All bolero, all the time!

Method followed this year:
- lightly-ish loosed soil, mostly without fully flipping.
- Marked/poked holes.
- Wetted soil.
- Put vermiculite.
- Wetted vermiculite.
- Placed seeds:  One per actual hole (or more where I accidentally dropped more than one), but also as spares I put some in the aisles, as backups.  (I used up all bolero seeds doing this... had I had more I might have put two in each hole.)
- Put vermulite over all, including the aisles.
- Watered it all.
- Put clear plastic sheet, anchored with rocks allllll along the border to help keep out any critters.

No rain in the forecast, so hopefully the plastic sheet will keep things nice and moist.
