planted seeds a couple of weeks back seedlings appear to be to long and thin  do I need to start again or  can they be replanted deeper ?

    Hi Sunnygardner. It may be that they are just a bit too warm. Turnips can be re planted but generally it is best to avoid doing this. Are your turnips the hardier type as you are planting this late in the season?

    I would leave them as they are for now and see how they develop.
