how and when to plant turnips?
 You can plant them in the early spring about 4 – 6 weeks before the last frost date for your area. Turnip seeds need to be planted at a depth of 1/2-inch deep. I use my finger to poke holes in the soil that are about 1/2-inch deep. I am planting the turnips about 10 inches apart, which enables me to plant 20 turnip plants in this box with those measurements.
