| CULTURE | Turnips are tolerant of moderate frost and prefer a fertile, well-drained soil, with a pH of 6.0–7.5. Sow early spring through late summer in a 2–4" wide band, seeds 1" apart (35 seeds/ft.) for small turnips or 2" apart (and half this rate) for larger turnips. Sow 1/4– 1/2" deep in rows 12–18" apart. |
| INSECT PESTS | Floating row covers installed at the time of sowing will keep the turnips free of insect pests, including flea beetles and root maggots. |
| HARVEST | Young, radish-size turnips are ready in about 30 days; full-size turnips are ready in about 40–50 days. Roots are smoothest when small. |
| STORAGE | Turnips with greens store at 32°F (0°C) and 95% relative humidity (RH) for 10–14 days. Fall-harvested Purple Top White Globe turnips can be topped at harvest and stored at 32–40°F (0–4°C) with 90–95% RH for 4–6 months. |
