Hi
I am growing turnips in containers and have done so for 2 years now without problems, in grow bag compost. I have this year tried turnip snowball and it was supposed to be a quick cropper but even my April sowing has not yet produced any turnips but only a long root.
there are lots of foliage so was wondering if it was too much nitrogen, but my other turnips oasis and primera are the same and have good turnips on them, even though they were started off later. Also planted more snowball recently and the same seems to be happening.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
thanks

) and there the reason was probably a mixture of overcrowding, irregular watering/weeding and possibly at this stage of the seasons too much strong sun.... So my honest answer is "I don't know" but it might be one or a combination of those! bb
