• Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged for consistent germination.
• Ensure the seeds receive adequate sunlight once they start sprouting.

Care & Maintenance:

• Fertilization: Carrots do not need heavy fertilization but may benefit from a light application of organic fertilizer at planting.
• Weeding: Keep the area around carrots weed-free to reduce competition for nutrients and water.
• Mulching: Apply a layer of mulch to conserve moisture, reduce weeds, and keep the soil cool.
