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.
Turnip greens are easy to grow in any well-drained soil. Set out turnip green plants 2 to 4 weeks before the last frost in spring and from late August to October for a fall crop in most areas. In zones 9 and 10 they can be planted throughout fall and winter. Like collards, kale, and other greens, turnip greens need to grow fast to produce nice, tender leaves. They arenât too fussy about soil, growing well in a soil pH of 5.5 to 6.8, and doing okay even in poor sandy soil.
