Parsnip - Gladiator Seeds

Sowing Outdoors
Sow seed fairly thickly in pre-watered, shallow rows, and cover with a little soil. Allow about 40cm (16in) between rows. Delay early sowings if soil is very wet or cold; later sowings will make up any lost time.
As seedlings develop, thin them gradually, eventually to about 15cm (6in) apart. Keep soil moist until seedlings are established.
ALWAYS BUY PARSNIP SEED FRESH EACH YEAR, AS IT DOES NOT STORE WELL ONCE THE FOIL SACHET HAS BEEN OPENED.
Special note
Roots can be left in the ground until required. We believe their flavour improves after autumn frosts. Parsnips do best in well dug, stone free soils which have not been recently manured.
