Anyway, also in the ground are turnip and green onion seeds.
Also, sowed some yarrow seeds (a bee attracting flower) in the former window box closest to the house.
The turnip seeds were oh so pretty: perfectly spherical, some berry colored, some purplish.
We might have to thin the green onions as my fingers weren't particularly nimble at picking up just one seed.
(That reminds me, we are to thin the carrots when the seedlings are about an inch high. For the babies, thin so that they are one or two inches apart. For the long guys, 2 1/2 to four inches. We can use tweezers for that task. Will we know the difference between the radish and carrot seedings? Here's hoping!)

I don't think we should have any problem distinguishing the radishes from the carrots. The radishes are much faster. They should germinate in seven days and be ready to harvest in 28 days. The carrots won't germinate until 10-20 days.
