Root Parsley "Olomuncka".
The Drought Survivor: 24 cm long roots perfect for winter storage!
A late-ripening variety of exceptional quality that guarantees a harvest even in changing weather conditions.
Characteristics:
Roots have a perfect shape: long (22-24 cm), tapering, with smooth light skin. Does not branch!
The flesh is creamy-white, dense, and highly aromatic.
Variety value:
1. Resilience: Tolerates drought and variable weather conditions well.
2. Storage: Excellent for winter storage; resistant to storage diseases.
Agrotechnics:
Light-loving crop. Soil must be loose (for straight roots) and fertile.
Sowing: April (spacing 20x10 cm). Germination in 15-20 days (at +3+4°C).
Important: Parsley does not tolerate waterlogging.
Companion planting:
Best neighbors: tomatoes, onions, garlic, spinach. Tip: Since parsley germinates slowly, mix the seeds with radish seeds (marker crop). Radishes sprout quickly, marking the rows for weeding.
1.0 g = 800 seeds.
* The "Double Benefit" Myth:
Many gardeners pick leaves from root parsley in summer for salads and expect big roots in autumn. This is a mistake! Leaves feed the root. By picking them, you starve the root, and it stays small. Want greens? Grow leaf parsley (it has up to 100 leaves per rosette vs. 40 for root parsley).
By the way, parsley contains 4 times more Vitamin C than lemons!

Did you know that… to make a delicious Tomato and Onion Güveç (Casserole), you need tomatoes, onions, and parsley.
Recipe: Sauté 500 g of sliced onions (half-rings) in vegetable oil until golden brown. In a baking dish, arrange alternate layers of the sautéed onions and sliced fresh tomatoes, salting each layer lightly (finish with a layer of tomatoes).
Sprinkle the top with breadcrumbs and chopped parsley, and drizzle with a little oil. Bake in a moderate oven until the vegetables are tender and the top is crispy.
