How do you know when it is time to pull a turnip?

Question

I just wanted to know if anyone knows when it is best to pull a turnip?

Answer 1

After the first frost. They need the cold to 'sweeten' them

If you pull them before that they are just bland. You can leave

them in the ground all winter and just dig them up when you need them.

Answer 2

just use them when they are the size you want, but they do taste better if you leave them in the garden till there has been a hard frost.

Answer 3

my parents always leave them in the ground all winter, then pull them after the ground thaws enough to dig them up.
