Golden Globe, an heirloom turnip, has been recorded since 1859. According to gardening expert William Woys Weaver, "Americans shared the Scottish love for this yellow turnip because it was an old hardy sort dating at least from the eighteenth century that could be relied on well into the winter. In fact, this variety... could be stored through the following March and were greatly valued as a food source when other supplies were low." Sowing: Golden Globe turnip seeds thrive when planted three weeks before the last frost in the spring or after the hottest part of summer for a fall crop.
