That is very often a sign of them. You'll have to have a closer look.

Were they netted?
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

Also, as arugula said in your parsnip post, they could be your problem there.

Sounds like they've shot it, so yes, sling them.

Don't put them in the compost though!
