Yet another question from me, sorry but you are all so knowledgeable and I really appreciate your advice!
I had a lovely row of parsnips growing and I decided to thin them out however instead of just taking a few out to thin them I dug up the whole lot and reset them spaced apart. I realise now it was definitely not the correct thing to do. They all wilted within minutes and the frustrating thing was they were all perfectly formed young parsnips! :(
Will they recover, some look like they are ok or have I ruined them completely ???
Thanks in advance
I think only time will tell, although they probably have a better chance in this cool, wet weather. You did brilliantly to get a whole row germinating- they're nor easy. Hope they survive!
They may recover but even so i doubt if you will get a good result as you will have snappd the tap root.
Parsnips is one of them plant you can,t transplant.
if they grow, you should get some interesting shapes ;D
still edible though
