Sowed the touchon carrots from the indoors sprout-jar soaking

Ah yes, this method worked much better than leaving the seeds in full soak (which had very little germination rate) -- this time I sprouted them with the usual sprouting method (jar with fine mesh lid; soak overnight; then drain, and rinse/drain several times daily).

Then used the cornstarch gel method to set them out.  It works really well!  However, be sure to use a deep/long baggie, because otherwise when you squeeze, half will come out the top in a big mess (don't ask me how I know this).

I need to remember to use this method again next year!
