  • Parssweed

    I harvested this strange thing from a row containing a few spare parsnips.
    I think it has been trying to grow into a sweed.

        Looks like a half-long parsnip to me. I grow Guernsey and most of them look just like that. Very tasty variety. Great for difficult soils. Did you enjoy it, Plot70?

          The seed came out of a normal packet from Wilco.
          Some of the crop this year have fattened at the top with a slightly thinner but usable root below.
          I suspect it is weather related.

              I had some next to a steak and the flavor was much better than some I harvested before the frozen soil.
              They are threatening to sprout now.
