Growing Tips

For a bumper crop of Rutabaga's, midsummer is your best time to plant. They will do well in a compost or manure rich soil that is well drained but kept moist.

When the plants reach about 4 inches tall, thin to 4-6 inches apart.

Wait until the greens are 4 inches before thinning your crop, so you can use the harvested greens (instead of wasting).

Culinary Uses

Most people are unaware of how to use a Rutabaga in recipes. Believe it or not, rutabagas can be used like potatoes or other root vegetables.

Prepare rutabagas by roasting, cooking or even as a mashed root vegetable. They are also great in casseroles, soups and stews.

Harvesting Crops

Wait until after you have had several hard frosts before pulling or digging the rutabagas out of the ground. Make sure to cut the stalks down to about an inch.

Rutabagas will store for up to six months in a refrigerator.

Harvesting Seed

Rutabagas are an interested plant to harvest seed from. They do not produce seed in the same year (biennial) and must overwinter before producing seed in their second year.

If you live in a warmer climate, simply placing a layer of mulch over them for the winter will provide enough protection. However, colder climates should dig out the rutabagas and trim the tops to 1 inch. Store these rutabagas in damp sand at about 33-40 degrees until you replant them in the spring.

Once replanted, the roots will send up flowering stalks that contain your seed pods. Wait until the seed pods turn brown and remove them before they shatter. You can also dig the entire plant up and hang the whole thing upside down over a paper bag (to catch seeds that are released).

If manually removing the seeds, crush the pods and collect. Store the seeds in a cool dry place for up to four years (depending on storage method).

USB ports charge.
Relatively cheap, lightweight, and better than most. It gets warm, but not hot. The Video adapter was immediately recognized by my Macbook and works flawlessly at all resolutions made available (much higher than Windows PCs) I used it both as the recipient of my 65W Mac charger, and the Mac received its power from this device; I also had the 65W Mac charger plugged directly into the Mac, and this plugged into the second USB-C plug on the mac. It works (HDMI monitor) both ways. It says that the ports are not for "charging", however be aware that they do charge when devices are connected, for example my iPhone to the extra USB-C port, or the USB-A port. My Logi back-lighted keyboard lights up too. I don't know why they say it is not for charging. Perhaps it is simply saying there are no ports expressly intended to do charging without connecting to your computer.

High quality and all the right connection types
This works great. I've used it for both my MAC and PC. I really love the Ethernet on the end and the HDMI connections (which modern laptops don't include at times). This is a great adaptor and highly recommend.

One complaint
Works very well and solved port issues on my X1 Carbon. My only quibble is that the C interface cable from the unit to the PC is a bit too stiff and tends to lose connection if things move about.

Perfect for my use
Works as intended. Solid build quality and works with my Windows laptop through the USB C connection. I wish the product description would clarify that the USB ports do not support video.
