I have planted carrot seedlings ,they're growing very well by all indictions of the tops.They have been in for about 4 weeks now,what fertiliser should I use so that the tops don't grow excessively with smaller carrots down in the soil.?

You shouldnt use a fertaliser on your carrots as it will cause it to split so it looks like it has legs, just make sure that they have plenty of water to prevent them from plitting and going woody
