Cultural Notes:

• Swedes are a high-yielding crop that have a huge versatility in the kitchen. They can be mashed, scalloped like potatoes, grated raw onto salads, included in a veggie burger mix, fried or plonked into soups and stews. 
• Thinning is essential if you want decent-sized roots.
• Swedes store well in the ground over winter.

Problems:

• Use Dipel spray if cabbage moths are flying around in the garden.

Harvest:

• Harvest roots as required. Pull all remaining roots once the days get longer and warmer at the end of winter.
