My first attempt to grow carrots has failed. Though I am happy to harvest few good harvest ☺️ .

Few things that I noticed is the reason why my harvest is so thin and small.
👉 I could have sowed the seeds in Oct or Nov starts.
👉 I didn't get time to remove weeds from the pot as a result carrot get less nutrition.
👉 Because of the space issue I sowed all the seeds in one single bag and they all germinated.
👉 I could have removed extra sprouts and ensure each remaining carrot seedling has 1-2″ of space in which to grow.
👉 It is very important to keep the soil moisture and not let them dry.
👉 While harvesting I saw a lot of hairy roots which is a sign of too much of nitrogen in the soil.
👉 Carrot does not require high amount of nitrogen. So, make sure if your area soil is high in nitrogen then use compost in high amount to grow carrots.
