We are huge fans of this forgotten heirloom that looks rather like Harry Potter’s mandrakes! Halfway between sugar beet and beetroot this easy to grow, giant veg is delicious mashed, roasted or pickled. Sweeter and less earthy than a beetroot it will sit for a long time in the field where it will also provide abundant greens.

Can be sown in module trays from late February or sown direct outdoors from March to July in a sunny position. Germination will usually take 12 to 24 days. When sowing direct plant seed at a depth of 3 cm in shallow drills. Protect young seedlings from birds.
Mangels are hardy and are usually free from pests and diseases. Water regularly in hot, dry weather to prevent the root from becoming tough and woody. Though the roots can become extremely large, they are at their most tender when head size or smaller.
Sowing Months: February – July
Harvest Months: May – November
Position: Full sun
