Never thought I’d be the person bragging about carrots, but here we are. Planted a handful of seeds in a random patch of dirt, barely expecting anything. Turns out, spacing them out actually matters—my first batch looked like orange spaghetti. Learned to thin them early, and suddenly, my carrots grew straight and fat. Watering just enough so the soil stayed damp (not soaked) made a huge difference too. The real moment of joy? Yanking up a carrot and seeing it was actually carrot-shaped. Felt like winning a tiny lottery. Now I’m hooked. If you’re thinking about trying, just go for it. Even the fails are kinda fun. #gardening #carrots #growyourown #backyardgarden
