Another Pinnacle of success


I won the parsnips class at Sturton......my 6th win out of 7 shows this season....with the variety Pinnacle. The skin condition was still good although I did have a little canker spot on one of them, which I put in my 2nd place winning set.
I shall certainly be growing this variety again next season assuming I can get hold of some seed. I'm convinced that this is a better variety than any I've grown before, such as Gladiator and Princess. I used to struggle to get Gladiator to carry its weight all the way down.
I may just switch to a slightly stronger mix next year in any case.
