I treat my swedes with no care and attention and they come out fine.

Literally;
chuck some seed in a small pot and ignore for 3 weeks.
Tip the pot out and pop somewhere for another month whilst the spuds are growing [I mean a seed bed or some corner somewhere in real soil, not in a pot].

transplant when you have room

water in

ignore.

come back in a few months and see the swedes starting to bulk up.
