 Turnip
Turnip seed can be planted in 6 to 8 in.
Turnip seed is small and it is essential that it be seeded into a fine, firm seedbed with adequate moisture for germination.
Turnip crops are attacked by two different flea beetles, which eat holes in the cotyledons and first leaves, chew stems and cause extensive plant loss.

 Encyclopedia of Fruit and Vegetables
Turnips contain nearly 90% water and of the mineral content nearly 50% is potassium.
By combining the juice of turnip leaves with carrot and dandelion juice, we have a means of effectively nourishing the bone structure of the body, particularly the teeth, in adults no less than in children.
When combined with carrot, spinach and turnip leaves juice, a combination is obtained which has proved to be a valuable cleanser of the blood stream.

 Watch Your Garden Grow - Turnip / Rutabaga
Turnips and rutabagas are of best quality (mild and tender) when they are of medium size (turnips should be 2 to 3 inches in diameter and rutabagas 3 to 5 inches in diameter) and have grown quickly and without interruption.
For summer use, turnips should be planted as early in the spring as possible.
If you have planted turnips for greens, harvest the tops as needed when they are 4 to 6 inches tall.

 turnip on Encyclopedia.com
The turnip is one of the root crops used as a stock feed as well as for human food.
The turnip is a biennial cool-weather crop, grown mostly in cool climates.
The worst turnip pests are the root maggot and the flea beetle; it is also attacked by clubroot fungus.

 Turnip
For turnips that are going to be processed, mechanical harvesting equipment such as that used on carrots may be used.
Thinning Thinning turnips in a field is a tedious task, and is normally not needed, however, thinning the crop 3 to 4 inches apart in the row to increase growth and vigor may be warranted.
Propagated by seed, turnips may be sown thinly in spring, summer, or drilled into rows as is generally done in fall plantings..

 Rutabaga, Commercial Vegetable Production Guides, North Willamette Research and Extension Center
Processing: Mechanical methods used for harvesting beets and carrots are satisfactory where turnips and rutabagas are grown for processing.
Turnip seed is easy to precision plant and germinates readily.
Turnips and rutabagas in good condition can be expected to keep 4 to 5 months at 32 F and high relative humidity.

 Brassica rapa
Turnips are one of the most commonly grown and.widely adapted root crops, as general farm crop, truck crop, or home-garden crop.
Turnip crop in 1969 was ca 60,000 MT; the 1971 consumption was ca 50,000 MT. The national consumption for both turnips and rutabagas (these are usually reported together) is ca 200,000 MT, not counting quantities used for animal feed.
Turnips may be intercropped with corn, and as such they are shade-tolerant, or they may be used as a catch crop after early vegetables.

 Turnips and Rutabages
Turnips and rutabagas are fairly trouble-free, with root maggots and flea beetles the most probable pests.
Turnips grow best in soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.8, and rutabagas prefer a slightly sweeter soil pH in the 6.0 to 7.2 range.
Turnips taste best when about 11/2 inches across, but they are still good up to 21/2 inches across.

 Turnip
Turnips also require a moderately fertile soil and adequate moisture to grow large, fleshy roots.
This condition is prevalent when turnip leaves mature under high temperatures combined with unfavorable growing conditions.
Cereal rye should be shred and tilled into the soil 30 days before planting a spring crop.

 Turnip and Mustard
The fungus is spread by windblown spores and overwinters in crop refuse.
At the end of harvest, diseased plants or those plants not harvested should be shredded and plowed under or tilled to reduce inoculum increase in an area.
Cruciferous weeds such as wild mustard and shepherd's purse are other hosts for the fungus and are a source of inoculum for mustard and turnips growing nearby.

 Turnip and Its Hybrid Offspring
Man appreciated the usefulness of the turnip during the prehistoric development of agriculture, and the plant was so easy to grow in so many places that it became widely distributed all the way from the Mediterranean across Asia to the Pacific.
Most varieties of turnip are white-fleshed and most varieties of rutabaga are yellow-fleshed, but there are also white-fleshed rutabagas and yellow-fleshed turnips.
The European type of turnip was grown in France for both food and stock feed at least as early as the first century after Christ.

 botany/brassica
Planting in early spring is discouraged because temperatures less than 50 degrees will cause plants to bolt to seed.
Sow the seeds thickly and eventually thin the plants to 4 inches apart.
Under good conditions and in moist, fertile soil, Turnip roots may reach 2 to 3 pounds.

 Turnip Greens, Commercial Vegetable Production Guides, North Willamette Research and Extension Center
Turnip greens are usually harvested by machine for processing.
Those used for fresh market should be graded so no diseased or damaged leaves are left on the plants.

A turnip grows in the ground and it does not grow on trees.
Because they grow and are harvested quickly, turnips, large infestations are not often a problem in the home gardens.

 FoodTale: TURNIP & Rutabaga
Pliny, in fact, discusses long turnips, flat turnips, and round turnips, such were the number of varieties under cultivation.
The seed came up, and one of the turnips grew to such an enormous size that it seemed as though it would never stop growing.
One of the oldest cultivated foods--some 5000 years ago--turnips probably sustained early foraging peoples long before the principles of cultivation were understood.

 Profile - Indian Turnip
The Iroquois used the Indian Turnip as a food and as a medicine.
The plant is white, and its root resembles a small turnip.
The fresh rhizome is very toxic, and can burn the mouth in the raw state, but once dried, loses its astringent quality.

 Sunbirds.com: Turnip Matryoshka with Figurines - Russian Lacquer item
The turnip is painted all the way around starting with the turnip itself, and down the line from the farmer all the way to the mouse.
The story begins when an old farmer realizes that the turnip growing in his field is a giant.
Each doll is painted as vibrantly as the turnip is. A small green stand that is decorated with gold ornamentation allows the oddly shaped bottom of the turnip stand straight up.

 Turnip turn heads
Frontis sowed his turnip seed by mixing it in with the fertilizer and then scattering it about by hand.
He scattered the seed in August, and the Corrihers pulled up the giant turnips on Nov. 20.
Frontis said the lore in his family has it that a bad turnip crop means you’ll get big turnips — presumably because the few that grow don’t crowd each other out.

 Turnip - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The rutabaga or swede differs from the turnip (brassica rapa) in that it is typically larger and yellow-orange rather than white.
In the north of England and Scotland, the larger, yellow rutabagas are called turnips (sometimes shortened to neeps in Scotland), while the smaller white turnips are called swedes.
Turnip can refer to three vegetables, which are described under the articles Turnip (brassica rapa), Rutabaga, and Jicama.

 The Turnip
At length it was so enormous that by itself it filled a whole cart, and two oxen were required to draw it, and the farmer had not the least idea what he was to do with the turnip, or whether it would be a fortune to him or a misfortune.
He set about it in a much more cunning way, however, and took gold and horses and carried them to the king, and made certain the king would give him a much larger present in return.
If his brother had got so much for one turnip, what would he not carry away with him in return for such beautiful things as these.
