http://www.durgan.org/URL/?DMVLA 30 April 2013 Parsnips Planted Board Method.
An eight foot row of ALL American parsnips was planted using the board method.Seed was saved from 2011/2012 crop. Apparently parsnip seed has to be fresh to germinate, probably meaning one year old.The seed was covered lightly with soil and watered lightly. The raised board will be removed when germination occurs. Spacing of seeds was about three inches.Parsnips are difficult to germinate for various reasons. The board method seems to be about the best method in my experience.
