Can I eat the smaller turnips that do not appear to have maggots?

Question

I have a two and one half foot raised bed. The bottom half is old soil and the top half is new. It is the first planting and started in June

Answer 1

I'm assuming the maggots have laid eggs in the lower soil layer. I think it's safe to eat the small ones that don't have maggots.
