My garden is swampy but in the raised bed, I found some turnip plants I had covered with straw and they are doing great.
I think next year, instead of harvesting them all early and watching them shrivel up and dry out, I will try mulching them and harvesting them as needed. It would be interesting to see how those work out.
Sometimes it works like a charm! On years we’ve gotten a heavy snow BEFORE frigid temps, I’ve had Brussels sprouts, Kale and Spinach ready to rock in the spring.
It’s a nice treat when that happens. :)
