Hubby needs to grow a monster turnip for our local pubs annual vegie growing competition, does anybody know which variety is the biggest? 

Thanks in advance.

I only have grown normal Snowball, but real Seeds have one called Giant limousin, if that helps.

Medwyns seed catalogue I think may be up on line soon which probably has monster veg in it.

several years ago  the older world record of 39 lbs was set by the turnip variety "purple top".

Lauren, they are lovely looking turnips, well done.  I chose the other variety they sold, as long as I don't blank I will be chuffed!
