But they can be a bit unpredictable on how well they grow, so I always plan for a bad year and then deal with the glut if it turns out to be a good one. Lately though I've been getting better at growing parsnips and they always seem to do well so we've been dealing with more of them. I guess I always try to grow a large variety of things encase I have crops fail.Kev Alvitihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992625860900617194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-4315106314816955962015-03-06T23:08:06.164+00:002015-03-06T23:08:06.164+00:00I find them so easy to grow and I add nothing to t...I find them so easy to grow and I add nothing to the soil when they're in (although they follow beans in my rotation normally), they'd make a good crop for you and I'd bet you'd find uses for them.Kev Alvitihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992625860900617194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-85813329748607650452015-03-06T23:06:53.748+00:002015-03-06T23:06:53.748+00:00Go on make it!

It's taken ages to get going again though, I think it was probably half dead, so I just left it for a few days and it's just starting to bubble now. Just added the rest of the flour this morning so hopefully it will revive. Have you tried putting apples in the parsnip soup? Hundreds of years ago when I was working as a sort of deputy cook type person in our local visitor centre (totally unqualified, having previously been a gardener!) I used to jazz things up a bit by making a curried Parsnip and Apple soup, just add a few apples and a bit of apple juice, it used to go down a storm.Sue Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16463317651625459406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3078806588853616263.post-89290070839651600002015-03-05T07:04:09.050+00:002015-03-05T07:04:09.050+00:00great post
