Cultivation advice Parsnip White Gem – Seed Tape 6M (3x2M) ~ 325 SeedsÂ
- Sow April to June direct to the growing position outside.
- Prepare the soil in your chosen growing location, removing any weeds and raking to a fine tilth.
- Make a shallow drill in the soil and simply roll out the tape in the groove. Tape can be cut to suit row length.
- Cover very thinly with soil, water lightly, mark the row with a label and ensure the soil is kept moist.
- The seed is pre-spaced on the tape; however, you may need to do a small amount of thinning on some varieties as they develop depending on the germination rate achieved.
