Turnips
Radishes: Root crop
They are good sources of vitamin B6, riboflavin, magnesium, copper and calcium, they provide good amounts of carbs and calories.
requires good sunlight and shade, grows best in cool moist weather, hot weather reduces quality of growth, and be sure to water often. planting radishes from seed is highly recommended. germination temperature is ideal at 55 to 85 degrees fahrenheit. a radish takes 3 to 4 days to germinate. Draw lines in the soil inch apart, drop a seed in the rows every inch, cover with 1/2 inch soil for best results. Prefers well-drained, loose soil, high in organic matter with little to no stones, and a pH level of 5.8 to 6.8 is good. but do not plant more radishes or other Cole crops in the same location, this can help reduce disease to the plant.
Carrots: Root crop
Carrots are good sources of vitamin A, which can help with vision.
the ideal growing season for carrots is in spring, carrots like lots of sunlight but temperatures that aren't to hot. planting a carrot from seed is recommended, and it takes about 7 to 20 days to germinate depending on soil temperature. 1/2 inch deep, 1/2 inches apart, in rows one to two feet apart in deeply worked soil in little to no weeds will greatly improve successful crop growth. do not let the soil dry out, but do not over water for this can crack roots.
Turnips: Root crop
turnips are good sources of calcium, vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin K.
From early
spring to late summer, sow seeds ¼ to ½ inch deep, 1 inch apart in rows 12 to
18 inches apart. Thin plants to 4- to 6-inch spacing is ideal for good seed growth. planting a turnip from seed is recommended, and it takes about 4 to 7 days to germinate depending on soil temperature. do not the soil dry out, this makes the turnip grow slower and gives it a woody taste. Plant turnips in well-drained soil rich in organic matter with a soil pH of 5.5 to 6.8. turnips require moist soil and not too much exposure to the sun, keep planting areas free of weeds.
