My season just ended with a couple of freezing nights. Got fruit right up to the end on Super Sioux.

If you're interested, two plants per 8-9 gal pot were too crowded. The plan was to fertilize faithfully every week, but that didn't happen, so the summer crops weren't robust. However, I also planted late and most fruit hadn't set when the heat hit, so that was a factor. Also planted two new varieties that were total duds, so can't gauge those. The Sioux really took off in the fall. Heck, who knows?! Shrug! good luck with the parsley. Remember it's a biennial, so will want to flower in its second year. They're pretty tough. Even though I do dry it, I agree about fresh being best!
