Boule d’Or yellow turnip – Heirloom Seeds / Rare seeds

Sowing: can be sown all year round.

Harvest: in spring and autumn

Sowing: in the ground, in July-August. Make lines with the handle of your rake 2 cm deep, spaced 25 cm apart. Distribute the seeds evenly. Cover with 1 cm of crumbled compost, close the furrow with the rake, tamp down, water abundantly with the head of the watering can. Twenty days later, when the plants have 2 true leaves, remove the stunted plants and keep a plant every 10 to 20 cm. Water to maintain freshness and repel flea beetles. Remember to mulch to keep the soil moist and space out weeding. Harvest: lift them with a spade fork then pull gently on the base of the leaves. Conservation: let them dry on the ground for a day, cut the leaves ½ cm above the root, place them if possible in a crate filled with sand that you will store in a cool, ventilated place. Soil: it grows well everywhere provided the soil is a little moist and well loosened in depth (remove pebbles, roots, weeds and break up clods before sowing). Pest: flea beetles
