Culture. While the main crop of Turnips is planted in July, more 
Turnips should be grown in early spring. Seed may be broadcast 
on the few soils freed of weeds but it is more advisable to sow 
in 1- or 2-ft. drills, cover less than one-half inch and thin to stand 
6 inches apart in the row. Use 1 ounce of seed to 100 feet of row 
and 2 pounds to the acre. The Turnip requires one-half more seed 
when broadcast than in drills and a salad Turnip requires one-half 
more seed than the Turnip sown as a root crop.
