Planting Instructions
When to plant:
- Parsnips need plenty of time to grow, so sow your seeds as soon as the ground is workable.
- Ensure that the soil is at least 46 degrees F so the seeds will germinate well.
How to plant:
- Till or loosen your soil in the planting area.
- If your soil is not ideal, add some compost or organic material to amend the soil.
- Plant the seeds ¼ inch deep with about 2 seeds per inch.
- After you see growth in 2.5-3 weeks, thin out the seedlings so they are around 3-5 inches apart.
When to harvest:
- Parsnips taste better after a hard frost, so leave them in the ground for about 105 days before pulling them up.
