Parsnips
Parsnips are growing nicely now and require thinning again. I have been putting this job off as I suffer from red spider mite so bad that I could lose them pretty quick. I will be sending off for some biological spider mite control, predators that eat spider mite in the hope I can keep my parsnips growing. Last year I had webs full of the things so there is no doubt they hibernated in the tunnel and will return. As far as I am aware no spray works on spider mite, its one of those pests that just won't go away.
