Players can start their own personal farms at Halfhill in the Valley of the Four Winds at level 85. When harvesting fully grown crops, players will have a small chance of looting an Ominous Seed. If planted, the seed will grow and yield the Terrible Turnip when harvested.

And you thought turnips at the dinner table were bad.
To answer several folks' questions, the Terrible Turnip grows from an "Ominious Seed," which is a random drop from any crop you harvest.
I love this pet. Its first ability cannot take a target below 1, which makes it really effective for farming low level pets. It should be essential for anyone who wants to collect pets fast and easy. No more worrying about accidently killing it too.
In battles, this ability can be swapped out for one that damages the whole enemy team, combined with healing abilities, this pet does really well against many types of teams.
A must have for a capturing team. Saves you the pain of losing your level 2 rare to a big hit. Get yours today!!!
I just bought mine for 17gp in AH ...i think someone messed up?
I love this pet! I got one yesterday and discovered today just how useful he is for capturing other pets. No more accidental crit hits that take out that rare I've been trying to catch for hours. =)
I love this pet and also find it great for collecting pets since his one ability will never reduce the enemy below 1hp. Hes also pretty cute for a vegetable. :)
A great pet for catching other pets during battling because of weaking blows. You don't have to worry about it dying from an over application of damage.
I got mine for 8g in AH I think someone messed up bad they go for 40,000 on silvermoon alliance AH. the best way to get it is just to farm your crops every day to get the seed to plant to get it. You know if the bunnicula would have a fight on his hands if he tried to get this veggie (you have a great life when you were younger if you know who bunnicula is)
just got mine yesterday after at least two months of continuous farming
can anyone tell me if there are any other battle pets with a similar ability?
I had the same problem, namely that weakening blow killed a rare Lofty Libram - so annoying. Happened on 13th April.
This appears to be bugged now (Feb 17)? I just had mine kill a lofty libram pet with weakening blows. :( After I'd finally found an uncommon one!
This is an amazing pet to farm lower level pets because it offers a move to bring pets to 1 hit point. Works well in combination with human pets with sunny day. Highly recommended utility pet.
I appreciate the comments about buying it from the AH. I bought mine for 175g, which is so very worth not having to literally "farm" it.
Been trying to grow this tunip for a couple of months, without success. Bought one on the AH today, for a mere 144g. Levelling it like mad, to take full advantage of its wonderful Weakening Blow.
[Edit] Got him to 25 in one day. Now I can use a high-level group to capture a low level rare, which saves so much time.
Best 300 gold (bought in AH) ever spent. This guy is ADORABLE! <3
I can confirm that you can get the Turnip multiple times. I just harvested my second one, and I now have two in my Pet Journal. I think I'll sell the second one, since I just use the Turnip for safely capturing low-level pets (Weakening Blow is great for that).
Got the seed at 87 and had dinged 89 by the time it had sprouted so that was my third day of farming? It's an adorable little bugger :) It does a little salute as well.
Ijust bought mine for 195g after trying to farm it for a month. Best money I ever spent. That being said, there's a level 25 turnip in the Eonar AH for 15000g. Wish I could afford that one.
This is one of my favorite pets and is always on my team. He is very useful in both capturing ones that you do not wish to kill and also against the Darkmoon Faire battle trainer - the tidal wave ability is awesome
