Growing Carrot

View the Carrot page

18 Apr 10 Jacki (Australia - tropical climate)
I am in Darwin and planted carrots in the dry season when its around 15degrees at night and morning and up to 24 or 25 degrees in the day, when i had harvested my carrots they were all tops and no roots, the thickest i got was less than a centimeter wide, i left the rest in and they didnt get any larger. Is it too hot where i live? My nana told me she had the same problem with carrots growing too.
