Parsnip Gladiator F1 -200 Seeds -14000

Description

Has become an established leading variety. The smooth skinned roots have a really sweet flavour and is canker resistant. An early to mature variety, it’s an essential part to your roast dinner!

Outdoors: sow thinly February-May, where they are to crop, 1.5cm (½”) deep, directly into finely-prepared, light, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Allow 40cm (16″) between rows. Early sowings may benefit from cloche protection. Seedlings usually appear in 14-32 days. Thin plants to 20cm (8″) apart. Replace any dislodged soil. Water well until plants are established. Leave roots in the ground until required, as they improve after exposure to autumn frosts. Harvest: October-February.

Tip: A deeply-dug soil will help this variety attain its full size and produce exhibition-quality roots.
