Product Information

Although these crops will stand some heat, they are normally considered cool-weather crops. Plant them in late Winter or early Spring for a spring crop or in the late Summer for a Fall or Winter crop. The seeds of Turnip are very small. The seedlings are fairly small and delicate as well. Scatter the seeds and rake them in or plant them thickly in a straight, narrow line. Cover the seeds about 1/2 in. deep. Very thick stands will have to be thinned to allow for good root formation. To ensure good germination and emergence, frequent, light watering may be needed. Crusty soils will retard emergence and a poor stand may result in these soils.

If the weather is dry, irrigation during the root development stage will give the best quality roots.

Early season weed control is essential. When rows are used, shallow cultivation and hoeing are effective. In a wide bed, pulling the weeds is sometimes the only solution. This should be done when the weeds are very small. Hoeing and cultivation also keep the soil loose and friable around the plants, enabling them to produce large, well-shaped roots.

Turnips will thrive in many types of soil. A loose, friable loam will allow the best root size and formation. Good drainage is essential, but dry soils should be avoided unless irrigation is planned. Soils of moderate fertility will produce the best crop, although proper fertilization and pH adjustment can overcome lack of natural fertility.

*Product packaging may appear different than what is pictured.~~~

Plant in the fall or spring at a rate of 5 - 10 lbs per acre. This seed needs to be at a depth of 1/8 - 1/4 and prefer a pH of 5.5 - 6.5.


A soil test should be taken to determine the soil pH and nutrients needs. The optimum pH for turnip production is 6.0 to 6.5. Apply lime according to soil test recommendations at least three months prior to planting, to adjust the pH to the proper level.

Soils that are infested with root-knot nematodes should be avoided particularly for the Fall crop; these pests will cause deformed roots. Do not plant Turnips after other cole crops.

A soil test is always the best method for determining the fertilization needs of a crop. Add additional nitrogen when the young plants begin to put on "true leaves," or after a heavy rainfall. Avoid applying too much nitrogen, which will reduce root formation. Broadcast fertilizer over the whole planting area a few days before seeding. Sidedress applications should be placed at least 3 in. away from the seed row.

Testing it out
Size: Medium Capacity
ORIGINAL REVIEW, OCT 2025: So far this little oven is doing great. Right now it's 4 stars but has the potential to change as I use it more often, right now I've only used it a handful of times. Heats up quickly so there's no growing old while waiting for preheating, a definite plus. The air fry option is super quiet, way more quiet than any air fryer I've ever had. Downside is there is no way to adjust temp for this setting so you really have to keep an eye on the food to see when it's done. DO NOT USE PARCHMENT PAPER IN THIS OVEN! I made that mistake because I use it in my regular full size oven as well as my old air fryer, but it's not compatible with this oven! I almost started a fire! Good thing I didn't walk away from it. I like that there's a timer feature so it will shut off, very helpful in times you are in the middle of something else at the same time and this avoids your food getting burnt. There's also a stay on feature in case you prefer that. For the timer you have to make sure you pass the 10 minute mark and then set it to the time you want. The oven is smaller than I expected. I don't know yet if a pizza will actually fit, I'll update when I attempt it. I've only made English muffin pizzas and French bread pizzas so far. One thing I really like about this oven is that it tends to cook food evenly. I've had toaster ovens that cook more on one side than the other and more on top than the bottom and it's frustrating! The stuff I've made in this oven were nice and crispy both on top and the bottom and it's so nice to not have pizza that's burnt on top and mushy on the bottom! I'm glad finally a manufacturer figured this out. This toasts really nice too. Watch the time with this. My bread got toasted way faster than with my old one! Overall I'm happy with this. I'll update as necessary.
