neworleansdude - It depends on which type of carrot you sowed - but take a look at carrots in the store, and when your tops look the same - pull one up :)

You'll soon know how large to let the tops grow before you pull them - and if some get too large, you can leave them alone. They'll put up a seed head (the following year I believe) and you'll have free carrots! The flowers are very pretty.
