The Seven Top Turnip

While other turnips focus energy on the bulb, Seven Top pours all its nutrients into producing a massive harvest of tender, peppery greens that are staples in traditional Southern cooking. +1 Why Choose Seven Top? Focused on Foliage: Unlike standard varieties, Seven Top produces woody, inedible roots, allowing the plant to yield a higher volume of premium quality greens. Nutrient Dense: These greens are a powerhouse of vitamins A, C, and K, offering a deep, earthy flavor that is far superior to store-bought alternatives. Extreme Hardiness: This is one of the most cold-tolerant greens available. It thrives in the spring and fall, and in many climates, it can even be overwintered for a very early spring harvest. Fast-Growing: With a maturity rate of just 40–45 days , you can go from seed to harvest in less than seven weeks. Choose Your Harvest Size 1.6g Sampler: Perfect for home gardeners wanting to add a nutrient-dense "cut-and-come-again" green to a few raised beds. 1oz Pouch: The ideal size for families who enjoy regular batches of sautéed greens or "pot likker" throughout the season. 1lb Bulk Bag: Best value for market growers, homesteaders, and those looking to plant large-scale cover crops or forage patches. Growing & Harvest Tips Sun & Soil: Prefers full sun to partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. It is an excellent choice for succession planting every two weeks for a continuous harvest. Harvesting for Tenderness: For the best flavor, harvest leaves when they are young and approximately 4–6 inches long. This ensures they remain tender and sweet. Garden Maintenance: Seven Top is naturally vigorous and resistant to many common pests, making it an excellent low-maintenance crop for organic gardeners. In the Kitchen: While famous for being slow-simmered with bacon or ham hocks, these greens are also excellent when lightly sautéed with garlic, added to hearty winter stews, or used as a zesty addition to fresh salads.
