Is there a good book about growing Giant vegetables out there? Something like Langevin's three pumpkin books but for vegetables?
Hey, all you growers from GB! Growing giant vegetables seems to be very popular in GB, isn't it? What are your favourite books on this subject?
Also, where can one find some seeds of competition strain Giant vegetable seeds of various varieties?
Any comments are appreciated!
Thanks,
Martin
