I pulled some more carrots from the garden.

They are a little bigger now and still have those (moustache-like) offshoots on the bottom. Does that mean that there is still potential for growth or not?

It seems (to me) that some of the plants are preparing to start flowering. As it is the first time that my carrots really take off, I don't know if flowering is that a thing for carrots or not?

Are you a gardener? Do you know? Can you advise me?
I am looking forward for your answers in the comments. TIA

I believe when they start to flower it’s time to pull them up to eat. All the plant energy will go to the flower first and then to the seed production. You should try and leave one or two and let them flower and the seed. I would try a collect the seed(just for the experience of it.) it took me a long time to recognize the sycamore seeds and then to figure out how to spout them.
