Once the repa was hardly the main vegetable on the table, then the potatoes were supplanted. Today, intelligent hostesses add it to soups, someone prepares salads, and most do not use at all. Over vain!
I grow a turnip of variety Petrovskaya 1She and beautiful, and tasty. It is impossible to sow after
In the fall, the Motoroblock is plowing the earth, in the spring - only boorram rakes, while the earth is wet. SEW at the very beginning of July. Do not make the beds - it is very laborious. For a certain length - I have 15 m - I spend two parallel grooves with a depth of 2 cm, at a distance of 30 cm from each other. Next, after 70-80 cm I spend a couple of parallel grooves - but this is how much it is necessary. Then add the tube with a segment to seal the ground, then the seeds will not fall and go at the same time. Then watering water (necessarily with the addition of humate). After that, I sprinkle the grooves of wood, cooking salt (5 g per 1 sq. M. m) - this is for sugar and improved taste, approximately 1 t. L. on 3 m (length of two grooves). By the way, when sowing beets, I also give a salt to increase sucrosiness. From above, we already sprinkle with dry ground or peat, if there is. Press the pipe or palm for good contact of seeds with the ground.
Shoot appear after three days. They look forward to not only we, but also cruciferous flews, who really like gentle leaves and they can leave an empty place from them. Therefore, dackets, coming in a week, think that the turnip did not go. Shoots need to immediately pollinate as a double gauze bag. Swick constantly, rebuilding substances in front of it: mustard, pepper, tobacco dust.
Necessarily we must remove weeds, pests are hidden in them.
Turnip loves water. At this time, it often rains, almost every day. And turnip, it can be said, grows not by day, but by the hour. But if there is no rain, then watering on top of the leaves in 2-3 days (3 m to 2 buckets of water, with further growth rate increase to 3 buckets). Especially need to water at the beginning of growth. After irrigation, it is necessary to loosen. After 2-3 of the real leaves appear, I will break on with 4-5 cm, and 10 days after 10 minutes. The most important thing is that the soil is constantly wet. When growing, the flea leaves is no longer afraid.
I use such a landing scheme for 4 years already, and I grows a beautiful, smooth, one to one.
Notice about the reverse:With a wide aisle, the turnip from all sides is illuminated by the Sun, it is ventilated, the leaves get a lot of nitrogen from the air, the lower leaves do not turn yellow, like with a dense landing.
