Tried pre-sprouting the #parsnip seeds to help germination, but there's nothing going on here...

Is it the right time for them to grow?

We did the presoak thing too. It took about 10 days till sprouts formed.

Good to know, I'll leave them for a couple more days anyway then! @gjones

These are the craziest things I've ever grown... Last year hardly any of my #parsnip seeds germinated, so I put in some #seedlings from the #gardencentre. I got one massive parsnip which we ate for Xmas dinner, and a bunch of pathetic corkscrew things which we composted. Last month. When I completely dug over this bed. Today I went out to sow early peas and found at least 5 parsnips, growing away merrily! 🤦 They are now moved to this year's parsnip bed, let's see what happens...

Heh, I had one growing in the middle of our new lawn, must've got churned up in the soil by the landscapers. Crazy (delicious) plants
Finally some #parsnip action! Glad I waited now 😊
Awesome!!
