Hi

Here's my first ever parsnips, grown in a flower bucket, a bit neglected.

Hey Spotty, or is it Mint? I'm not laughing! The tops look fine, the bottoms being a bit straggly make me wonder if they got thirsty...

but I bet they taste great! I only grew them for the first time this year too.

They look realy good, a lot better than my poor attempt

Hi

Probably thirsty, never watered them. A long story, but certainly neglected.

ooo - I want to grown some in a container next year - how deep was the bucket you used?

I think you've done pretty well there, cant see a lot wrong. They are all usable,no real blemishes or forking , well done I say

Nice clean roots no forks well done. Think I'll have a go myself next year

It would usually be about now that DD would post his giant parsnip photo but he's obviously on his very best and nicest behaviour today!

So I'll do it for him

Hi

Nice parsnip, mine were a small variety "Arrow". But still finger/bite size.

They were grown in a Morrisons flower bucket, the bigger size, in compost.
