CULTURE: Turnip is one of the first seeds 
to be sown in the spring. As soon as the 
ground can be worked, spade or plow deeply, 
and prepare the surface finely, raking off all 
clods and stones. Sow the seeds at once in 
the freshly dug soil; sow very thinly in rows 
1 to 3 feet apart, or broadcast by raking the 
seeds into the soil one-half inch deep. When 
up, thin out to three inches apart. Sowings at 
intervals of 10 days can be made until the 
end of August.
