Description

Golden Ball have deliciously sweet tasting golden yellow flesh with a beautiful golden skin. They are a spring sowing variety maturing in about 60 days with good storage qualities and a deliciously mild flavour. Turnips are fast growing root vegetables which add a different flavour grated raw in salads, added to casseroles or served as a separate vegetable completely. When pulled young, they are a far cry from the woody, sad examples that can often be seen in the supermarkets today. When to Sow: March to June. Where to Sow: Early sowings are best made under cloches. Sow seed direct into growing site in seed drills 2cm (3/4in) deep with rows spaced 30cm (12in) apart. Sow in succession every 14 days to prolong the harvest period. What to do next: As soon as first rough leaves appear, thin to 10cm (4in) apart. Harvest from when roots are golf ball size, pull alternate roots to maximise crop. Water regularly during hot dry weather to prevent roots from going woody. Maturity: June to October. Handy Tip: Can be grown for turnip tops, an alternative to spinach. Sow a little thicker but do not thin, treat as cut and come again crop. Nutritional Value: A good source of Vitamins B6 and a very good source of dietary fibre and Vitamin C.
