Parsnips taking over

The Tender and True parsnips are now 8 weeks old, and suddenly the greenery has shot up and is getting very bushy and tall.

I only hope that the parsnips are growing equally as vigorously beneath the surface.  Sadly it will be months before I find out.

 I've also this week taken out some of the smaller plants, to give the larger ones room to grow.  I've transplanted these into gaps where carrot seedlings did not come up.  I don't know whether they will continue to grow or not, but it's worth a go.
