The Brassica rapa ssp. rapa (Turnip) Petrowski BIO is a unique and traditional root vegetable known as the famous Teltower Rübchen. This special turnip is appreciated for its refined taste, excellent storage properties, and versatility in the kitchen. For lovers of authentic and organic vegetables, this variety is highly recommended.
The Petrowski turnip is distinguished by its light yellow, flattened, round tubers. The flesh varies from creamy white to light yellow and has a soft, firm texture. The taste is pleasantly sweet with a subtle spiciness, making this turnip popular in both traditional and modern dishes.
What makes this variety extra special is that the turnips are harvested relatively small. For the best quality and taste, they should have a maximum diameter of about 5 cm. At this stage, they are the most tender and aromatic.
The Organic Brassica rapa Petrowski is a versatile vegetable that can be grown year-round, even in a greenhouse. However, the emphasis is on autumn cultivation, during which the flavor develops optimally and the tubers can be stored best.
The sowing periods are:
Sowing is done as direct seeding in rows, with the following distances:
After emergence, thinning is essential to create the correct planting distance. This ensures uniform growth and compact, high-quality tubers. Cultivation is relatively simple and requires little maintenance, provided the soil remains sufficiently nutritious and moist.
The harvest period runs from early June to October, depending on the sowing time. Thanks to rapid development, the first turnips can be harvested within just a few weeks.
A major advantage of Petrowski is its excellent storage quality. Provided they are harvested at the right time (at approximately 5 cm), the tubers remain good for a long time without loss of flavor or texture. This makes them particularly suitable for storage and later use in the kitchen.

Due to its fine texture and natural sweetness, this turnip is also popular in gourmet cuisine.
