Parsnips
I have been trying for several years to grow parsnips. First I didn’t realize it can take up to 30 days for them to sprout. Second you want your soil temp 50° to 60° no warmer.
I had tried several times to plant directly to garden soil and very rarely had any sprout. So I tried starting some inside under my grow light but I realize now it was too hot for them, they didn’t sprout. So this year I started some inside my garage and set by south facing windows the temperature there was 55 to 60°. They ALL sprouted! 😊 I have now set them out and they are loving it. Wish I had known these facts about parsnips a long time ago, anyway I do now. Hope this information can help someone else who is having problems with parsnips 😉
