These were NOT grown by me!
But I bought them at a local farmers market yesterday - I have NEVER seen such enormous radishes!!!
The white ball is a ping pong ball for size:

They are big, no doubt, but the key point is ... are they tasty!
And, as a sportsman, I'd say that you wouldnt get very far playing ping-pong with that ball - it's a golf ball!

lol hehehe...sorry loz but that was funny.
Those are good sized radishes even if it is a golf ball.
I have a question about radishes, white radishes as a matter of fact.
Mine are thin and I'm thinking it is because they went without water for about 10 days. If I leave them in the ground and water them everyday do you think they will get bigger around?

It is actually NOT a real golfball, but a plastic ball from the $1 store that had many in the bag without a name, and pingpong is what came to mind at the time . No biggie - you still get the idea about the size.  And yes... they were VERY tasty!

psssst - starfish - I don't know why I thought pingpong ball instead of golfball, as both my parents are golf addicts! It's just that I have an aversion to golf, as it was pretty much a way of life in our house growing up! And the ball has the weight of a pingpong ball...  ;) ... anywhooooooooooooo... Have you seen the birdhouses and feeder my dad made from golfballs?  //www.agardenersforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=84565#Post84565
