Seven Top Turnip Greens

 

Seven top turnip greens are "turnip-less" turnip greens. They don't grow actual turnips, only the above ground greens. An oxymoron worth growing. After pulling up a very mediocre and small planting of lima beans, I added a layer of finished compost, dampened the soil bed, and scattered thousands of the seven top seeds on top of the ground followed by very lightly raking them over. The result? So far, thousands of tiny emerging seedlings. Looking forward to continued growth.

 

9/29 Update!

 

Seven tops are doing well a week later. Cooler weather is on the way too, with lows in the low 40's. Should really help these little guys get going.
