Sowing and harvesting time

Sow indoors Sow outdoors Harvest

- Mature Height 45cm
- Mature Spread 30cm
- Planting Sow thinly 5cm deep with 5cm between rows.
- Soil Type Fertile, well drained, stone free soil
Parsnips require deep, stone free soil. Plant somewhere that reaches sun or sits in partially shaded areas. Sow from Feb-Apr thinly 5cm deep deep with 5cm between rows. Germination rates are very dependent on weather conditions, but roughly they can take up to 3 weeks. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, thin to 5cm between plants. This crop requires very little attention other than keeping their soil weed-free. Harvest when the tops begin to die back. Parsnips are often sweeter after a frost, so it's often recommended to harvest after one!
