Agrotechnics.
Turnip prefers loamy soils. In autumn, the area is carefully dug up.
The best predecessors are cucumber, tomato, legumes. Seeds are sown 80 days before harvesting, making sure that they do not fall deeper than 1.5-2 cm. During the first period of vegetation, the soil is loosened, weeds are removed.
Turnips should be watered regularly, as turnips like moist soil. To protect against pests, the area is pollinated with ash. After the formation of the fourth true leaf, the seedlings are thinned out, leaving 5-10 cm between the plants.
Root crops are harvested selectively, as they reach maturity.

* Turnip is a cold-resistant plant: seeds begin to germinate at a temperature of +2+3°C, and seedlings and adult plants tolerate short-term frosts down to -4°C. The most favorable temperature for both seed germination and for the growth and formation of root crops is +18+20°C. In this case, seedlings appear 2-4 days after sowing. This crop is very demanding of moisture, but otherwise unpretentious. It grows on any soil, but is best on fertile sandy loams and loams with a neutral reaction (pH 6.0-7.0). 
Root crops grown on acidic soils are usually affected by clubroot and are poorly stored. Seedlings tolerate short-term frosts down to -6°C, but a long-term decrease in temperature leads to the appearance of flower stalks in the 1st year of development. Mature plants with well-developed leaves can withstand frosts from -4 to -8°C in the autumn, but freezing reduces the shelf life of root crops.
