@sandydogy Never tried tobacco before. Don't think I will, I've no use for it anyway. The Council may object anyway. That's the whole point of gardening, it's fun and the rewards you get at the end are priceless. I love it whatever the weather. I've been gardening in the snow, sun, rain and wind. Just won't garden in a thunder storm, bit too risky. Enjoy your harvest.

just started watching your video's, finding them very good and useful.
this is first year having a allotment. hoping to see lot's more tips

@neild1 If you pull them out, the chances of them coming out whole are quite slim. You'll have to dig deep for the parsnip end. Ease them out gently, it's much kinder on the plant. Anyway it's enjoyable finding the longest one.

Hope the allotment is going well. Have a great sowing year. Let me know how you get on.

how long does it take from sowing till harvest?

@Daisypie101 Parsnips you sow in Feb/March time in the soil straight in the soil, and they're ready from mid November onwards. They need to have a few frosts before you dig them up, but they can be left in the ground and dig up as and when you need them. Leeks you sow in March under cover and plant out April/May time when they're about 6 inches tall, and harvest from September onwards. Again dig up as and when you need them. They both don't mind snow.

@Daisypie101 No it's too late to sow Parsnips in June. They need the cold weather to germinate, wait until Feb/ March next year.
