From our crop reference

Turnip is a vegetable crop, grown in the rabi season. Sow it in Sep–Nov and expect to harvest in 55–75 days. It wants a pH of 6.0–7.0 (close to neutral) and 13–22°C. Plant at 30 × 10 cm, allowing 4–5 kg of seed per hectare. A good crop returns around 20–25 t. Watch for aphid, white rust.
