in the ground
Sow lightly, directly in place, after the last frosts, in rows 25-30 cm apart. Cover seeds lightly, press down and keep soil cool. Thin to 10 cm when plants have 5 to 6 leaves.
Turnips do not appreciate dryness, which makes their roots fibrous. Regular watering is therefore recommended. Roots kept for the winter should be harvested before the first frost and stored in a cellar. They can also be left in the garden, protected from frost, but beware of pests.
