Growing Tips

For a bumper crop of Rutabaga's, midsummer is your best time to plant. They will do well in a compost or manure rich soil that is well drained but kept moist.

When the plants reach about 4 inches tall, thin to 4-6 inches apart.

Wait until the greens are 4 inches before thinning your crop, so you can use the harvested greens (instead of wasting).

Culinary Uses

Most people are unaware of how to use a Rutabaga in recipes. Believe it or not, rutabagas can be used like potatoes or other root vegetables.

Prepare rutabagas by roasting, cooking or even as a mashed root vegetable. They are also great in casseroles, soups and stews.

Harvesting Crops

Wait until after you have had several hard frosts before pulling or digging the rutabagas out of the ground. Make sure to cut the stalks down to about an inch.

Rutabagas will store for up to six months in a refrigerator.

Harvesting Seed

Rutabagas are an interested plant to harvest seed from. They do not produce seed in the same year (biennial) and must overwinter before producing seed in their second year.

If you live in a warmer climate, simply placing a layer of mulch over them for the winter will provide enough protection. However, colder climates should dig out the rutabagas and trim the tops to 1 inch. Store these rutabagas in damp sand at about 33-40 degrees until you replant them in the spring.

Once replanted, the roots will send up flowering stalks that contain your seed pods. Wait until the seed pods turn brown and remove them before they shatter. You can also dig the entire plant up and hang the whole thing upside down over a paper bag (to catch seeds that are released).

If manually removing the seeds, crush the pods and collect. Store the seeds in a cool dry place for up to four years (depending on storage method).

Have used a Camco cord with our camper van, wanted an extension with the same quality.
Size: 25-Foot, Style: Standard End
Good design, solid plugs just like their power cords that attach directly to the van. We ended up having to purchase 2 to put them together to get the length we wanted, one came yesterday, the other today. The one that came yesterday came with a nice strap with a handle that makes it easy to bundle the cable up when not in use, and makes it easier to carry. The second one we purchased that came today, did NOT have a nice strap/carrying handle. I thought for sure that I saw that this carrying handle noted in the product description, but today I can't find it there. So, a great cord, should not melt like some of the others, since it is identical in construction to the RV cord we have used for 5 years.....just wish they all came with the nice carry handle. Would have given it a 5, but with 2 of these ordered 1 day after the other, and they are not supplied with the same nice accessory, we discounted the review a tick.

Use as shore power routing cable to and from Victron Multiplus nverter
Size: 50-Foot, Style: Standard End
I cut the ends off this and used it for extending in the original 30A shore circuit to and from my power center to my 3000W Victron Multiplus inverter. Very flexible and easy to run. It was a bit dicey to remove the black outer support material without injuring the conductors - used a table knife. You want to leave a little cabling on the ends so that you might use them for other purposes. For example, to bench test the Victron Multiplus. Per foot it was less expensive than other options and worked better IMHO.

Glad I bought this one
Size: 25-Foot, Style: Standard End
There were other less expensive options but I'm glad I bought this one as it's a brand that I recognize and it seems heavy duty and well-made to me, and the cable feels just like the one coming out of my RV. I used this extension cord on a recent ten day trip for extra reach to a generator for running various appliances, including the air conditioner. I checked it periodically for any signs of overheating and it never felt abnormal at all to me. Just my own experience and opinions here, yours may differ. Thanks and good luck!

The Camco Power Grip 30-Ft 50 Amp RV Extension Cord has been a fantastic addition to my RV equipment. It offers both reliability and convenience, making my camping experience so much better. One of the standout features is the robust construction. The cord is heavy-duty, yet flexible enough to maneuver easily, even in tight spaces. The 50 Amp rating provides ample power for my RV’s electrical needs, ensuring that all my appliances run smoothly without any issues. The Power Grip handles are a brilliant touch, making it easy to plug and unplug the cord without straining my hands. The design is well thought out, and the bright color ensures that the cord is always visible, reducing the risk of tripping or other accidents. I also appreciate the weather-resistant coating, which provides extra durability and protection against the elements. It’s held up well in various weather conditions, from rain to intense sun, without any signs of wear or degradation. Overall, the Camco Power Grip 30-Ft 50 Amp RV Extension Cord is an excellent investment for any RV owner. It combines durability, ease of use, and reliability, making it a must-have for a hassle-free camping experience. Highly recommended!
