Default Turnips failure - v odd


"Brian Watson" wrote in message
...
My daughter planted a row of turnips and only the left-hand 50% have come
through to show some early leaf growth - the rest, nothing at all.

They don't use weedkillers so nothing has been applied by them to the
surface to prevent germination.

Any ideas what could cause such a weird effect?


I don't know where you live but Turnips are a cool weather crop usually
planted in the fall - here in zone 6.
