Parsnip Imperial Crown |
| Unit Price(£) |
1.00
|
Selected and maintained on our farm. Chosen for its long smooth roots but with a small crown. Excellent flavour and texture. Good exhibition variety. 725
|
WHEN TO SOW
February to May.
WHERE TO SOW
Sow the seeds thinly, direct into the growing site, 2cm deep in rows 45cm apart. A stone free tilth is preferable.
WHAT TO DO NEXT
Do not transplant seedlings. As soon as seedlings appear they should be gradually thinned until plants are 15cm apart. Hoe regularly but ensure you do not damage the crown of the root.
MATURITY
October onwards.
HANDY TIP
As parsnips occupy ground for a long time, grow a quick maturing vegetable like lettuce or radish between the rows. |
