hmm the only thing i can think of is that they are pretty finicky about moisture- they will wilt in a heartbeat if the soil gets too dry! They also need drainage though- if growing in containers they need to have drainage holes (but I'm sure you know that already! just throwing it out there) best of luck hope you get an awesome harvest!!

I have carrot plants and few tips I have are  
1- they like moister but don’t over water and if you do end up overwatering just let them dry out  
2- make sure the pot their in has drainage holes  
3- If you want larger carrots once they sprout plant them in ground but if you want a smaller carrot keep them in a deep pot  
4- I have the best luck with keeping my carrots in a green house until I plant them in ground
