My carrots are growing well thanks to the insect screen protection. It wards off swallowtail butterflies which they can lay eggs on carrot's leaves and the young worms feed them.

I thinned out some carrots and I was very happy when I saw the carrot's roots have grown! I believe it was worth spending times screening out pebbles before sowing. I believe they can be harvested in the mid of July.

Wow, everything looks like it is doing very well! You are going to have some really nice carrots come harvest time!
Nice!
May I ask how much sunlight passes through the screen?

I strongly hope the carrots will grow well since I actually failed to grow carrots last year.

I think about over 90% of sunlight can go through my screen. It's made of a mesh fabric.
The anti-insect screen over the carrots has certainly worked well.
