Welcome! :D Hi, I've moved your question to the GYO board to get some answers and changed the title slightly to indicate it is about carrots. :) Please feel free to tell us more about yourself in the Welcome board though. :D

yes you can still sow :)
I like Early Nantes for spring and summer sowing and Autumn King for winter use.
