As the subject says - outdoor garden.

Potatoes were planted one week ago and sowed carrot seed today. Just realised that I sowed carrots on one of the potato drills by mistake.

Should I just scrape off the top of the drill or will the potatoes just outgrow the carrots when they come up?

I'd say scrape off the top of the soil and re-sow it elsewhere.

Also, beware of other hybrids, like tomacco plants.
