To perform Turnip Clip:
* After collecting the Power Moon from the top of the nearby cliff, pull out a turnip and take it down to the cage.
* Retrieve a turnip from the top of the nearby cliff, and bring it down to the glass cage surrounding the story moon.
* Place the turnip in front of the left half of one of the four cage walls, with a slight gap in between. The easiest way to position this correctly is to stand directly against the cage while facing it, and press B and Y simultaneously.

This was used before 1.3 came along reducing the load times drastically.
Turnip Clip was used in runs before version 1.3.0 debuted and reduced load times drastically, thus outweighing the time save yielded by Turnip Clip and other version-exclusive tricks.

In this case, the turnip was right along the way and saved a round trip to the switch.
Turnip Clip was very useful in [[Any%]] since it completely removed the need to make a round trip to the switch to break the cage. Fetching a turnip took little extra time since it was already directly next to the previous moon in the route, ''Atop the Jutting Crag''. The glitch saved around eight seconds in this category.

In the case of World Peace, things are a little bit different. This glitched saved 2 seconds while needing a small re-route of Luncheon. The turnip used was one of those from the town requiring a set up to bring the turnip to the glass box.
In the case of [[World Peace]], things are a bit different. The glitch only saved around two seconds in this case, while also resulting in a minor reroute of the Luncheon Kingdom. Since ''Atop the Jutting Crag'' was not collected like in Any%, the player was required to bring a turnip from [[Peronza Plaza]], which slowed down Mario's movement through that section.
