    some of you mite not have ever seen a turnip this big before. my uncle grows them in his garden. i picked this
    19 pounder today. purple top turnip. not "woody" like you mite think either. pass the salt brothers. can you imagine the gas potential of these things.

    I never could handle the taste of them, but I do like to go out to the food plots in February and use them for target practice. After months of freezing and thawing, they work their way the surface, especially in the bottom ground. Great fun with a .22! I consider it spreading fertilizer.

    My turnips this year weren't any good. I planted them it rained nicely then got really dry and the turnips grew slowly and were woody. I hope yours are better.
