I have always waited until after the first frost in the area before picking turnip greens. Do you'll who garden wait or do you pick turnip greens when they are ready?
Amen brotherDon't worry about the turnips, it's the collards which get better after frost.
Collards and fatback grease … that’s how my my mom made them… hmmm good!Wife cooked a mess that our neighbors gave us this morning. No frost just a ham hock mighty tasty.
If you guys want some good collards, try beef broth/stock instead of water. Basically any stock instead of water. That’s Good stuff.
Bummer! Collards or turnips are a decent consolation prize for a fried shellfish/fish meal. Better check the web next time for hours of operation though, so you are not sorely disappointed.I quit trying to grow anything but did go to Raleigh today and picked up a few bunches of turnip salad at the Farmer's Market. Nobody told me that the seafood resturant was closed on Mon. and Tue. now so I guess I'll be going back soon.
I did. Looked pretty clear to me. That's why I was kinda disappointed. Heading back to Raleigh Wed. I hope to pick up some grass carp so I'll try again. And probably get some more salad and hope that lady is back with more white corn.Bummer! Collards or turnips are a decent consolation prize for a fried shellfish/fish meal.

Dang! No indication that they are closed M. or T. Well, you can always blame it on Trump or Covid.I did. Looked pretty clear to me. That's why I was kinda disappointed. Heading back to Raleigh Wed.

Would bok choy be considered an Asian green? Not even trying to be funny. Dad loves that stuffA long time ago, I used to grow and sell produce. I'd often sell grocery bags full of greens. It's funny to see the different types of people that buy greens and what kinds of greens they buy. Turnip greens would usually be at the bottom. I'd sell a lot of mustards and collards. The Asian greens and some of the more weird greens sold great to the "green people"
