Parsnips advice please

The parsnips are still in the ground and not been slugged or anything but the folliage is starting to look very sorry for it`self and most is begining to lie flat,do I leave it,remove any rotting stems, dig them up,although I`d rather not as there are so many of them.Any advice?

Yep leave them in, the frost will improve the flavour I have plenty in just take em when you need them.
