Parsnips
"shazzbat" wrote in message ...
This year I am intending to try the method of germinating them on wet tissue paper and then transplanting. Has anybody tried this? With what success? And how big do you let them get before planting out? This months garden answers has something in it about this method. You sprout the seed (so that the seeds are just about splitting and no more) on the paper and then mix into some already wet water retaining gel. Then mix gently and use a placcy bag with a hole to sqeeze out a line onto your plot. The gel protects the delicate seeds/sprouts and gives them a good start in life. I am not sure when you are supposed to do all this though? March? I guess it is a bit too early in the year right now? sarah a |
