carrots

well, my resolve to type & not be on the forum didn't last very long, probably 30 seconds.

Can I transplant carrots? Mine are coming up now & are thick as hops around the edge of hte box. It rained after I planted them & washed the seeds to the side. Can I transplant or should I just reseed?

With the right tool you can transplant but it sets them back and you have an amazing percentage of interesting looking roots. If you feel ruthless, thin and reseed (my vote). If you have a widger (seedling transplant tool) and don't want to hurt your babies, transplant. Either way you extend your season.

I think I'll thin & reseed. Thanks
