That's good going! It's only the !st!!! 
I assume you meant April and that's still good going.....all the sun
Mine are a bit slow having been sown before that nasty cold spell.

Yes April  we did do it on a sunny day, so we were lucky.
We are growing them on our second plot. This one was well looked after, up to the time the gentleman decided he was getting too old for it.

No sign of mine yet the carrots are up next door  first year really doing 100% seeds and feeling frustrated

 :blink:   

Mine are up too, but I used the paper pots method. Hopefully they will be straight and not kinked when they are dug up in, er, 8 months.   Hurry up, snips!

I thought you meant last May!   

I only planted my parsnips last week as its been so cold and wet up here, but I did sow my old last years seed that was left over in a pot in the greenhouse, and 4 or 5 of them are coming up.  I am going to put them into long pots that I've got with sieved compost and sand to see how they grow on their own!

Sown 6th April. First ones showing today. 26 days.

Why do all the books say 'easy to grow'?  never had a sucessful one yet!

[GrannieAnnie]

I think they mean 'easy to grow' in perfect conditions!

So sorry  If I had a brain cell I'd be dangerous!!!!!

Munty rotatvated  the patch about 3 or four times on a slow speed ( ) and then raised the whole bed until it resembled a well dug grave about 18 inches high! I think we were just lucky with the weather. Had many a year parsnip free!!

[snowdrops]

Only sowed mine today.
