Mr Fothergills Turnip Sweet Marble F1 100 Seed

Turnip - Sweet Marble F1

This is a fast growing variety with sweet tasting roots and no bitter aftertaste. The turnips can be eaten raw or cooked and the leaves can be used as spinach.

Sow outdoors thinly, from March to July, where they are to crop, 1.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Allow 30cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 14-21 days. Thin out to 10cm apart. Water well until plants are established. Regular sowings, made every two to three weeks, will ensure a continuous supply. Harvest from June to October.
