Turnips are a fast-growing, cool weather crop with delicious leaves and tasty roots. They like loose, moderately fertile, well-drained soil with a neutral pH range of 5.5-8.0. Like other root crops, turnips benefit from an application of rock phosphate and potassium (wood ashes). They can be grown in early spring and fall, and overwinter in mild climates.
