The turnip is an ancient vegetable that we see more in the markets than in the vegetable garden. Its only requirement to satisfy is to have humus soil, which remains fresh throughout the growth of its root.
For a spring and summer harvest, sowing takes place from mid-March to the end of June (mid-February for growing under cover) Fall and winter turnips are sown from mid/late July to end of August and protected from too much heat using a shade sail or overturned crates.
