We transplanted parsley plants that were growing healthily Now the outside stalks and leafs of both our flat leaf and curly leaf parsley die as soon as new shoots appear in the centre. The result is that we're unable to get a big bushy healthy plant that we can use. I think there is defiiency of someting in the soil. Can anyone give us some tips on what it may be.

Parsley HATES being transplanted and usually dies or takes a long time to come good again. It is easier to sow new seed than to transplant it.

It may just be that the weather is much cooler. I'm in Canberra and here parsley really only grows when it's warm.
