A mixture of turnips with molasses and potatoes was once used by the Tenth Doctor to clog up proton cannons being fired upon him and Martha Jones. Having landed aboard an American schooner in the Caribbean Sea during the Quasi-War, the time travellers had to quickly prepare the mixture to thwart their attackers. The mixture gunked up the cannon's intake valve and immediately caused it to explode. (COMIC: Second Wave)

Mia and Peter Bennett used samples of Martian soil to grow plants such as turnips. (TV: The Waters of Mars)
