Product Information

Although these crops will stand some heat, they are normally considered cool-weather crops. Plant them in late Winter or early Spring for a spring crop or in the late Summer for a Fall or Winter crop. The seeds of Turnip are very small. The seedlings are fairly small and delicate as well. Scatter the seeds and rake them in or plant them thickly in a straight, narrow line. Cover the seeds about 1/2 in. deep. Very thick stands will have to be thinned to allow for good root formation. To ensure good germination and emergence, frequent, light watering may be needed. Crusty soils will retard emergence and a poor stand may result in these soils.

If the weather is dry, irrigation during the root development stage will give the best quality roots.

Early season weed control is essential. When rows are used, shallow cultivation and hoeing are effective. In a wide bed, pulling the weeds is sometimes the only solution. This should be done when the weeds are very small. Hoeing and cultivation also keep the soil loose and friable around the plants, enabling them to produce large, well-shaped roots.

Turnips will thrive in many types of soil. A loose, friable loam will allow the best root size and formation. Good drainage is essential, but dry soils should be avoided unless irrigation is planned. Soils of moderate fertility will produce the best crop, although proper fertilization and pH adjustment can overcome lack of natural fertility.

*Product packaging may appear different than what is pictured.~~~

Plant in the fall or spring at a rate of 5 - 10 lbs per acre. This seed needs to be at a depth of 1/8 - 1/4 and prefer a pH of 5.5 - 6.5.


A soil test should be taken to determine the soil pH and nutrients needs. The optimum pH for turnip production is 6.0 to 6.5. Apply lime according to soil test recommendations at least three months prior to planting, to adjust the pH to the proper level.

Soils that are infested with root-knot nematodes should be avoided particularly for the Fall crop; these pests will cause deformed roots. Do not plant Turnips after other cole crops.

A soil test is always the best method for determining the fertilization needs of a crop. Add additional nitrogen when the young plants begin to put on "true leaves," or after a heavy rainfall. Avoid applying too much nitrogen, which will reduce root formation. Broadcast fertilizer over the whole planting area a few days before seeding. Sidedress applications should be placed at least 3 in. away from the seed row.

Great suit, great price
Size: Small, Color: Dark Grey
Had to send back because jacket (small size) was too tight around my upper torso so you could tell it didn't fit right. The pants though were the perfect fit, so much so I contemplated keeping the suit - it looked expensive. The suit was delivered as promised so I am thankful for that. Beause I needed it for a wedding the next day I couldn't wait on this seller as I didn't see them offering an overnight delivery. But kuddos to them though for working with me

great suit for teenagers
Size: Small, Color: Dark Grey, Size: Small, Color: Dark Grey
We loved this suit, it is true to color so it has this high end quality look and fit my tall(5’10), 14yr son like it was custom tailored. he likes that it has a slim fit and still breathable. If only the hidden elastic band was adjustable then this suit would have been perfect. It was great for 8th grade graduation and affordable
