When do you harvest swede vegetables?

Swede vegetables, also known as rutabagas, are typically harvested in late summer to early fall, around 90 to 120 days after planting. They can be left in the ground until after the first frost, which can enhance their sweetness. Harvest when the roots are about 6 to 8 inches in diameter for optimal flavor and texture. Ensure to dig them up carefully to avoid damaging the roots.
