Add your own home grown parsnips to your Sunday Roast! The wonderful high yielding 'white gem' parsnip seeds are easy and fast growing for all the family to enjoy growing and eating. You can expect creamy-white medium lengthed crops to appear from September through to February! Direct sow parsnip seeds outdoors from mid spring to early summer, as soon as the ground is workable. Avoid sowing in cold or wet soils. Grow parsnips in a sunny position in stone-free, well prepared ground that has been deeply cultivated. Parsnips prefer a fertile, light, well drained soil. Sow parsnip seeds thinly at a depth of 2cm ( 3/4in) in drills 30cm (12") apart. Germination is slow and may take up to 28 days. When large enough to handle, thin out the seedlings within each row to 7cm (3in) apart or 10cm (4") apart if larger roots are required.
