Parsnips

[springs]

A lot of my parsnip leaves are going brown and brittle. Do parsnips suffer with blight or is this some other disease

[springs]

[Robert_Brenchley]

Certainly not blight!

[pete10]

Would say they are beginning to die back a touch.

[manicscousers]

ours are like that, been pulling them for a couple of months now, they're getting really huge  ;D

[cornykev]

Yes it does mean the leaves are dieing back Spring, like the Scousers I pulled a few already but they are best left in the ground until we get some frost, I only pulled mine because the whole line I put in came up, so I need to thin them but are big snips that I'm thinning so  they are hard to pull up without disturbing the others.  ;D ;D ;D
