Mix a few radish seeds with carrots when planting. The radishes germinate
in 4 days and quickly grow up to provide shade for the emerging delicate
carrots, they also break any surface crust that may form - especially in hot
weather. By the time the radishes are ready to pull out, the carrots are
well established and pulling the radishes out loosens the soil a bit a give
the carrots room to grow.
