Can You Bury Turnips in Animal Crossing: New Horizons?

One of the things that can be found in the game named Animal Crossing New Horizons or ACNH is turnip. They are available to be purchased from the turnip seller named Daisy Mae that will land on your island every Sunday morning from 5 AM to 12 PM. The price to get one varies, ranging from 90 Bells to 110 Bells. Feel free to buy these in stacks of 10. After purchasing from Daisy Mae, you will then have to sell them before the next Sunday comes, unless you want them to rot with no value.

Compared to the other items that you find in the game, turnips are different as there is no way for them to be placed in the storage of your home. If you fail to sell the turnips before the next Sunday, it would be an issue for you as no one wants an island that has rogue vegetables. If this kind of situation happens to you, you might want to store them.

There are a few ways to store the turnips and one of them is to bury them in the ground. In order to bury the turnips on the ground, the first thing that you have to do is to dig a hole. You can do it by using a shovel. When a hole is ready, it is time for you to drop the turnips in. When the process of burying the turnips is done, you will be able to see the pattern on the ground which is similar to the one that you see when you cross fossils and bamboo shoots.
