The parsnips inside the tunnel:



I'm still not convinced on the methods of watering parsnips with so many people having so many different methods. Some growers water right up to June then start watering from the bottom, some only water at seedling stage and leave them alone, some just keep them evenly moist.

I have to take into consideration that I'm growing them inside a tunnel that can reach well over 100 on hot days. This year i am going to try and keep them evenly moist and just limit the amount of water i give them until i feel they can be watered from the bottom. I also need to take into consideration that mine are in pipes rather than a large barrel that keeps more moisture in for longer periods of time.
