Apparently it's a good thing to do to plant radishes in the same row - as they tell you where your parsnips are (great for weeding) and you get a catch crop from the same space. I've not tried this personally - but intend to try it out this year - what do others think ?

I know where my parsnips by employing  the scientific method of two sticks at the end of the row!

No, seriously I know a lot of people do, personally I can't - ever seen a radish with club root?

I've sown radishes in between the rows of parsnips and they are nearly ready to harvest already  :D Used the space and parsnips still only have seed leaves  :lol: so could have put lettuce in I reckin
