Brassica rapa var. glabra. 55 days to maturity. Cool season annual. These scarlet skinned, globe-shaped, hybrid Japanese turnips have pure white flesh that is tender and crisp. They have a delicious, sweet flavor when harvested young to full maturity. Sow seeds in late summer/early fall for winter harvest. Keep soil moist. Fertilize as needed. Plant every 2 weeks for continuous harvest. Cool temperatures improve the quality and flavor of turnips. Harvest when about 3" in diameter. Asian turnips are mainly eaten when very young and are delicious raw with a dressing. The roots and young green tops can be sauteed, pickled or added to stew, curry and soup.
