TURNIPS 



Navet, Fr. 

 Navone, Ital. 



One ounce will sow 100 feet of row; one pound will sow an acre. 

 Culture. — The soil for Turnips should be rich and mellow. For early use sow as soon as ground opens in Spring 

 in drills 12 to 18 inches apart and 14 inch deep, or sow broadcast, although much larger crops are obtained by 

 drill culture. When the plants are a few inches in height, and strong enough to resist the attacks of insects, thin 

 them out to some 5 or 6 inches apart in the drills. For succession continue to sow every two weeks until June; 

 for Fall and Winter crop sow from the first of July to September 10th.
