Planting Turnips in Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Cutting right to the chase, it is not possible to plant turnips in Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

This is because planting turnips to make more of them could potentially become game-breaking in terms of making Bells. If players were able to plant and increase the number of turnips they had from their initial investment to Daisy Mae, it could make earning Bells far too easy and break the in-game economy.

If players were hoping to plant turnips to keep them fresher than their standard one-week life before they go rotten, you can guess again, too. Turnips will only ever stay fresh for a week. As soon as you reach the following Sunday, they will be spoiled and rotten.

Instead, you’ll want to just store your turnips in a room in your house. Keep it empty and simply drop them on the floor. Once you find the perfect price to sell your Turnips, pick ’em all back up and sell them to make your millions. Keep in mind this will not keep your turnips fresh for any longer.
