Slugs like them.

Celeriac is a pretty easy vegetable to grow. They love well fertile soil which is in a sunny spot on the allotment.

You have to remove the sideshoots from late august onwards, just remove the lower leaves to expose the main crown.

Other than that keep well watered and the area weed free  8)

Good Luck!
