Our recommended sub for Scarlet Queen Red Stems.
An early red salad turnip. Compared to Scarlet Queen Red Stems, Hirosaki Red matures earlier and has a slightly rounder and spicier root. Avg. 133,000 seeds/lb. Packet: 200 seeds.
SCIENTIFIC NAME:Brassica rapa
CULTURE:Turnips are tolerant of moderate frost as seedlings in spring, and as mature plants in fall. Turnips prefer a fertile, well-drained soil, with a pH of 6.0–7.5. Sow early spring through late summer in a 2–4" wide band, seeds 1" apart (35 seeds/ft.) for small turnips or 2" apart (and half this rate) for larger turnips. Sow 1/4– 1/2" deep in rows 12–18" apart.
INSECT PESTS:Floating row covers installed at the time of sowing will keep the turnips free of insect pests, including flea beetles and root maggots.
HARVEST:Young, radish-size turnips in about 30 days, full size in 40–50 days. Roots are smoothest when small.
STORAGE:Turnips with greens store at 32°F (0°C) and 95% relative humidity for 10–14 days. Fall-harvested Purple Top White Globe turnips can be topped at harvest and stored at 32–40°F (0–4°C) with 90–95% humidity for 4–6 months.
AVG. DIRECT SEEDING RATE:1 oz./320', 3.1 oz./1,000', 5 2/3 lb./acre at 35 seeds/ft. in rows 18" apart.
SEED SPECS:See individual varieties.
PACKET:200 seeds, sows 11'.
