Planting & Care

Sow parsnip seeds directly in the garden in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked. Plant seeds 1/2 inch deep and 1 inch apart in rows 18-24 inches apart. Keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which can take 2-3 weeks. Thin seedlings to 6-8 inches apart when they are 2-3 inches tall. Parsnips require deep, loose soil free of rocks to develop straight roots. Water regularly and control weeds to reduce competition.

Harvest roots in late fall after a few frosts for the sweetest flavor. Parsnips can be left in the ground through winter in mild climates and dug as needed.
