Growing Info: Sow directly where parsnips are to grow April-June. Sow in drills 2mm deep, in well-prepared, stone-free soil. Germination can be slow, so ideally grow a fast catch crop such as radish or rocket between, as this will help mark the rows. Prefers a sandy soil. |
|
Aftercare: May need protection from Carrot fly. Roots can be left in the ground and pulled up when needed. Loosen surrounding soil with a fork before lifting to prevent damage. |
