Gardeners will be green with envy over great-grandfather's TWO STONE cabbage (and he's unveiling a bigger one soon)
Residents of a care home will have a near lifetime's supply of vegetable soup with this cabbage weighing nearly TWO STONE.
Great-grandfather Tony Southall, 74, grew the monstrous vegetable which was on display at his allotments open day in Dudley, West Midlands.
A visitor on Saturday guessed the Cornish Giant cabbage, which has a diameter of 5ft, weighed 25lb.
He was only 2oz out and won a bottle of whisky.
The cabbage was later donated to be eaten by residents of a care home.
'It was blessed heavy,' Tony said.
'I have heard of people who say they've grown a 60 pounder - but saying it and seeing it are another thing and I wouldn't always trust what a vegetable grower says.'
And Tony is set to unveil an even bigger one next month at the Amblecote Royal British Legion but he won't reveal the weight because there will be prizes for guessing.
He revealed the secret of growing the massive vegetable was liquid comfrey.
'It's a herb and it smells like rotting vegetation,' he said.
'I also put a bucket of wee in the compost.'
The retired engineer, who has had his 148sq ft allotment for 13 years, last September grew a 136lb marrow - and this year he has another that he thinks should tip the scales at anywhere up to 230lb.
He is also nurturing extra-long runner beans, as well as carrots, cauliflowers, parsnips and other vegetables.
He never buys vegetables and has four freezers to keep him going throughout the seasons.
And Tony confesses he does talk to his plants - warning them 'if you don't grow, you're on the compost heap'.
