When you say that a turnip is good for a fall crop, are you saying one planted in spring matures in fall or that you plant in summer for fall maturity?

How do turnips grow; underground like radishes?

Plant in summer for fall maturity is how I have always grown neeps - and yes, they're a root crop, like beets or radishes. Neeps-a-mashie is one of my favourite fall side-dishes.
