This is THE parsnip people think of when they think of parnsips.•All America Selection winner•Heirloom•Open Pollinated•Non-GMO•100-120 Days•USDA Zones: 3-12Growing Instructions:Sow in early to middle spring when soil is at least 45°, sow 2 seeds per inch, 1/4 - 1/2″ deep, in rows 18-24″ apart. Thin seedlings to 3-5" apart. Parsnip seeds are slow to germinate in cold soil and may take 2-4 weeks. Do not allow soil to dry out prior to emergence. Parsnips also can be started inside, where you can mix the seeds with compost in a bag and then tie off the bag. Leave the bag in a warm, dark place and seedlings should sprout within a week. After they’ve sprouted, transplant the seedlings to the garden. Parsnips prefer a slightly damp ground and should get 1 inch of water every week. Fertilization can be done by using a 10-10-10 fertilizer and working it into the soil with a fork, as root vegetables do best growing in fluffy soil. Apply a side dressing of fertilizer six weeks after planting the parsnips. Parsnips take approximately 16 weeks to mature, and their flavor is enhanced by enduring a few frosts.•FREE SHIPPING on all orders of $35 or more.•Flat Rate shipping no matter how many seeds you order.•Growing instructions included on each seed packet.*All information is provided for educational purposes only.
