Mine do not look quite that good but I love turnip roots, and picked some yesterday.jal_ut wrote:[img]https://donce.lofthouse.com/jamaica/turnip_7_2_2011.jpg[/img]
Long Story Short: My mom and dad used to plant a great bed of purple top turnips and mustard greens. The patch would make some great turnip roots. I also have planted them but did not plant any at my home this year, and my mom has not planted any in years, but she can cook some mean turnips.
I did plant 10 lbs of purple tops, however, in on of my deer food plots. The deer have enjoyed them all fall and winter, and these guys have too

I sent this picture to my mom who lives near the land where I hunt. She emailed me back to say "If there are some turnips in that patch, I want some" So, yesterday she and I drove over to the field to check it out, and picture two sack full of nice turnip roots.
The deer, the turkey, my mom and I are enjoying the turnips
