    When are parsnips ready to pick?

    Top Answerer
    Parsnips are ready to pick between 4 and 5 month after seeding. You can leave the plants in the ground after that; parsnips can sustain frost.

    First you plant the seeds close to each other. Then you thin the seedlings to leave 25 cm (10 in) between each plant.

    Will parsnips grow over winter?

    No, but you can store them in the ground by mulching over them, then harvest them in the spring before they start to sprout again.

    Anytime in spring when temperatures are higher than 50 degrees F. March, April, and May are usually all good times.
