Purple Top Turnip (Brassica rapa) is a cool-season root vegetable that is widely grown for its edible bulbs and leafy greens. It's a preferred crop for wildlife food plots due to its high palatability and nutritious foliage and tubers. Turnips are especially favored by deer, wild turkeys, and rabbits. These plants grow quickly, providing an excellent fall food source and cover for wildlife. They are also great for soil health, adding organic matter and improving soil structure.

Benefits for Wildlife

Highly attractive to deer and other wildlife – Leaves and roots are nutritious and favored by many species.
Edible root and foliage – The roots are rich in energy and nutrients, while the leaves are excellent for grazing.
Fast-growing – Provides a food source within a few months, making it ideal for late-season wildlife forage.
Effective cover for wildlife – The leafy growth provides shelter and nesting opportunities for various species.

Planting Guidelines for Purple Top Turnip

  • Planting Times:

    • Spring (early April to May) for early season growth or late summer (late July to early August) for fall forage. Plant at least 60–90 days before the first frost for optimal root development.
  • Seeding Depth:

    • 1/4 to 1/2 inches deep – Shallow planting ensures proper germination, as seeds are small.
  • Seeding Rates:

    • Drilled: 3–4 lbs per acre for even seed distribution and consistent growth.
    • Broadcast: 5–6 lbs per acre; lightly incorporate the seeds into the soil for good seed-to-soil contact.
  • Days to Maturity:

    • 60–90 days from planting to maturity, depending on weather and soil conditions.
    • Roots are typically ready for harvest or wildlife feeding within 2 to 3 months.
  • Height at Maturity:

    • 12–18 inches – The plant's height varies based on growing conditions, with leafy growth extending above the root.
  • Drought Tolerance:

    • Moderate – Purple top turnip tolerates dry conditions but requires adequate moisture during the growing season for optimal root development.
  • Saturated Soil Tolerance:

    • Low – Prefers well-drained soils and does not tolerate excessive waterlogging or heavy rainfall for extended periods.
  • Shade Tolerance:

    • Low – Requires full sun for healthy growth and robust root development.

Fertilization Guidelines for Purple Top Turnip

  • Soil pH:

    • Prefers a slightly acidic to neutral soil pH of 6.0–7.0 for optimal growth and nutrient uptake.
  • Nitrogen (N):

    • Apply 30–50 lbs per acre of nitrogen to encourage leafy growth. Avoid excessive nitrogen, as it can lead to too much foliage and poor root development.
  • Phosphorus (P) & Potassium (K):

    • Apply 40–60 lbs of phosphorus and 50–80 lbs of potassium per acre for strong root development.
    • Soil testing is recommended to determine exact nutrient needs.

Fertilization Timing:

  • Apply fertilizers at planting to ensure that nutrients are available during the establishment phase.

Herbicide Use for Purple Top Turnip

  • Weed Control:

    • Weeds can reduce turnip yields, so weed control is important in the early stages of growth.
  • Pre-emergence Herbicides:

    • Pendimethalin and Trifluralin are common herbicides for controlling weeds before emergence but should be used carefully to avoid harming turnips.
  • Post-emergence Herbicides:

    • Broadleaf herbicides should be used cautiously as they may damage turnips, especially if applied when the plants are still young.

     

Mechanical Weed Control:

  • Cultivation or mowing is also an effective method to control weeds in turnip plots without using herbicides.

More than a daily grind
Color: Purple
We are very happy so far, working very well. The grind is even and easy to adjust with a simple turn of the screw on the base of the grinder. The automatic light is a nice feature, especially as I am 66 and my eyes are not what they used to be. Once I turned the on button to face front, I'm no longer triggering a grind just by picking these up. (our last grinders trigger was on the top of the unit}. They feel well constructed and are easy to fill. My wife absolutely loves the color (purple). will update this in a couple months for durability, but for the price so far (1 month) 5 stars

Electric grinders
Color: Black/Black
Easy to refill. We use pink Himalayan salt and the grinder does well. It seems to struggle a bit with the peppercorns bit still gets the job done. The light is nice. We have enjoyed the ease of use. It also looks nice on the counter. The holder is great as it catches any fine debris after use. I purchased this one as it uses actual batteries and not something else I have to charge. They have been used daily for 2 months and have not needed to change the batteries yet.

I Feel Like a Fancy Chef Every Time I Season My Fries
Color: Green
This Salt and Pepper Grinder, Electric Automatic has officially upgraded my kitchen from “microwave expert” to “TV cooking show contestant.” One button press and suddenly I’m seasoning food with dramatic confidence like I know exactly what I’m doing. The automatic grinding works smoothly and quickly, and I love how consistent the grind size is. Whether I want a fine sprinkle or a coarser grind, it handles both perfectly. The motor is surprisingly strong, and it doesn’t struggle or jam like some cheaper grinders I’ve used before. The design also looks sleek and modern sitting on the counter. It feels comfortable in the hand, easy to refill, and the clear container makes it simple to see when it’s time for more salt or pepper. Huge bonus: no wrist workout required. My manual grinder used to make me feel like I was training for an arm wrestling tournament. I’ve been using it daily, and now even scrambled eggs get five star restaurant treatment. Friends noticed it immediately and asked where I got it which made me feel unnecessarily sophisticated for someone eating frozen pizza. Overall, convenient, stylish, and genuinely useful. If you want effortless seasoning with a little extra kitchen drama, this grinder is a winner

Good BASIC Set
Color: Black/Black
I just got these a week ago. I like them, but I wished I would have gotten some with more features. I never had electric grinders so I am comparing them to hand grinding. It's a step up for sure. It was easy to load the batteries, but it seems four batteries per grinder is a lot. I hope they last a while. Loading the salt and pepper was rather easy also. It's nice to have control on the size of the grind, but I wish there was control on the amount it puts out on one quick press of the button. It was too much in my opinion. It does have a light at the bottom so you can see how much seasoning you are putting on the food. The tray they sit in gets dirty very quickly, so you will have to wash it out frequently. This is a good basic set for the price, they do the job of grinding the seasoning. However, in hindsight, I would have picked some with more features and a little more decoration.
