Care Tips
Turnips don't have to have the dodgy reputation that they seem to have developed. They can be delicious and sweet when prepared properly, be it steamin, roasting or even raw in salads! They are very easily grown in most soils in most locations in the garden. Turnips do grow very quickly so be ready to harvest after 5-6 weeks when they are golf ball sized.
