An outstanding hybrid variety which produces high yields of smooth, uniform, very white roots. Shallow crowns and wedge bayonet shape. Intermediate canker resistance. A multi purpose variety, ideal for pre-pack work. Maincrop variety, suitable for cropping between mid September and early April. Parsnips are not fussy about what soil types they grow in. For all plants that have deep-growing roots as the parsnip and if you wish to grow the long, ‘perfect’ looking parsnip, you will need deep soil, that has recently been manured and is stone free. If parsnips hit a stone while growing they tend to fork.They grow best in a light, rich soil. A generous amount of compost or humus in some other form, incorporated in the soil will help provide soil aeration and a uniform distribution of moisture, besides the source of food supply for the plants.
