yes today yes Wow yeah I read about more carrot packs to replant and so because our carrots in Germany no they were really old seeds and I think that my problem okay so because I know the seeds went in the ground the other thing that I didn't do that I will do today is again put a grove on over it right away that's good but what about the rain isn't gonna rain this afternoon it's gonna rain this evening okay so my plan will be well plant it and we'll put the agribon on it okay and then the rain will come and terminate that very what are you busy in here on members and the editing this morning
