How to grow
Sow the carrot seed directly into the place where they are to be grown. Carrots grow best in a deep, loose soil that retains moisture yet is well-drained. Thin the carrots as they reach a small edible size.
I didn't weed soon enough to give the carrots the room they needed to grow so my crop is not very good this year. A lot of the carrots didn't grow because of the weeds.
