Car tire numbers are explained using the letters and numbers printed on the side of the tire. These numbers tell you the tires purpose, the complete dimensions, the total load/weight capacity, speed rating and more. These specifications are referred to as the tire code.
Organic Soil for Turnips. Clay soil is high in minerals which are good for turnip growth, however, clay is a very dense material and inhibits the growth of tubers. To solve the problem, mix 1 wheelbarrow of sand into a 100 square foot section, and mix it in well. When mixing clay, be sure that the clumps are broken up and mixed with the sand.
Planting:Turnips grow best in cool weather and are direct seeded in the garden either in early spring or in the fall, about 70 days before your first frost date. Plant seeds about Â½ inch deep. When the plants are 3 - 4 inches tall, thin them to 2 - 4 inches apart. You can use the thinned out plants as greens.
