Matures in 100 Days

This is the best and most productive variety and is largely grown both for home garden and market. The roots are creamy white and grow 10–12 inches long.

SOWING:
Plant seed outdoors as early in the spring as ground can be worked. Plant in rows 18 inches apart, spacing seed 2–3 inches in the row. Cover seed with 1/2 inch of soil, well pressed down.

THINNING:
When plants are 2–3 inches high, thin to 6 inches apart in the row.

GERMINATION:
14 to 21 days depending on soil and weather conditions.

REMARKS:
Rich in vitamins A and B. Parsnips are a very hardy root crop and the flavor will be improved if they are left in the ground through the winter.
