Planted carrots in March in Jefferson City, MO using a mix of Miracle-Gro Organic Moisture Control soil, Perlite, Coco coir, Earthworm castings.

Thinned to 2” apart. The tops looked great, but the carrots ended up really thin and undeveloped. A few even started to bolt.

Could the soil mix have been too heavy or too nitrogen-rich? Wondering what went wrong and how I can improve it for next time. Open to trying again for a fall crop!
