Planting and care.
Sow early in the spring in well-lit areas. 1 gram = 200-300 seeds.
Seeding rate: 0.4-0.5 g / m2. Planting depth 1.5-2 cm. Row spacing 20-30 cm.
Seeds germinate in 3-4 weeks. Seeds germinate slowly. Being a strong consumer of nutrients, parsnips love organic fertilizers applied in the fall. (A long ripening period requires frequent loosening of the soil. Regular watering is necessary, since in case of drought, flowering begins prematurely).
Thin out the seedlings. The distance between the rows is 30-40 cm; between plants in a row - 10-15 cm
Parsnips grow especially slowly during the first 2 months, so they require careful care: loosening, weeding, watering not often, but abundantly (10 liters of water per 1 m2). On hot days, parsnip leaves emit burning essential oils that can cause skin burns, so it is better to care for crops early in the morning or late in the evening.
Root crops are harvested late in the fall, but before the onset of frost. After this, it is recommended to cover the plants with fallen leaves. The roots can withstand severe frosts. You need to dig the roots out of the ground carefully so as not to break them.
Store in sand at high humidity and low temperatures.
