The biggest WORM  I have ever seen in my garden was in my compost heap a couple of years ago.

It was about twelve inches long and well over half an inch in diameter.

I can handle the red wigglers with no problem at all, but this one I gathered up with a fork and transplanted it up the hillside well away from my compost heap.

It really did look revolting to me. I don't mind snakes as they can be beautiful looking but this worm was a kind of washed-out beige and had no defining features, looked like an uncooked sausage.

The BIGGEST RADISH I have grown was one of a bunch I picked from my BTE area.  It was at least four times the size of the others in the bunch which were themselves quite a decent size. I could have used it as a softball or tennis ball.  It was no good to eat though, all the others tasted OK.

On TV this morning, a 10kg TURNIP.  Going to be used for Christmas Dinner and anything left over for turnip soup for the whole town.
