Yes, pot grown early nantes ready a month or so ago, fleece covered outside ones also now ready as off 2 weeks ago.

We are also eating thinnings of Autumn King, Sytan and just about to start Carson.

The carrots get no fertilzer other than manure from a previous crop, in this case that crop was spuds. The fleece protection coupled with compost drills helps bring things forward a few weeks too I believe.
