I don't think so Lottie.  I planted some autumn variety last week to last through the winterand they are currently setting true leaves.  At worst they will be smaller than normal but still big enough to eat!

Carrot F1 Primo

Early, 2nd early carrot. Used as a first or second early, bolt resistant with good skin characteristics, strong tops and good internal quality. Very smooth with good colour and fast growth for early cropping. Can be sown in October, December and late winter onwards for successional harvesting from May to August.
