Default Why have my carrots not come up?

Carrots can take a long time to germinate. We waited ages for ours to
show this year, then when the weather turned warmer in the last few
days, they all started to show. Give yours a little more time before you
give up on them.

Thanks for the thought but when I say I have given up this year, I mean I
have not sown any at all. Last year I sowed four different varieties from
two different seed producers. One carrot germinated but stayed very small.
Otherwise, nothing.

I will wait till I have new ideas as to what is causing the failure before I
waste any more time and money on carrot seeds (as much as I like carrots).
