Will do SCarlet! I have received some more seeds since then - not sown them yet. Maybe tomorrow!

A pinch of spring onions and some land cress.

Chard, Spinach, Pak Choi

Cabbage - Wintergreen and Pixie
Turnip - Petrowski and Purple Top Milan
Swede - Joan
Parsnip - Kral Russian
Seakale - Lily White

All in modules in a cool corner of the coolest GH. I never have much success growing direct. Hope I do better with these. Just a couple of each would make me happy. .

When do you expect to harvest the parsnips Veggie?

Nothing at the moment as I have no room. I need to find space for my leeks.

No idea! The packet says "Sow April to June" and is still July, just.
They're not your normal parsnips either but shaped more like beetroot so don't need the depth apparently.

That sounds unusual for a parsnip, care to share the packet ?, in the past when I tried grow them outdoors I ended up with a big head and a useless stem, leggy etc.

These are they!!
