One bite into it and you should know whether or not it is a radish or turnip. It could have very well been a red radish that happened to have a burp in the gene pool that made it white and big. Could happen in the heirloom pool but not an everyday thing.

The seed will cross with the red radish so that would make it a hybrid variety then.

On the pictures I posted above, the row of radishes in the ground are ''white icicle'' I right clicked the picture to find out - not rocket science - even old grannies like me manage it

Yep, I can just imagine some lovely red and white striped ones, and maybe a few white ones with red dots. (please forgive my warped sense of humour) .......

Where I'm at a loss is this thing is 2 1/2" at the base. Are white radishes known to grow that large?

Or maybe this one.

Well when it's fully grown, and you've tasted it, let us know what it's like, and you could offer us some seeds if you like. You could get a fair bit of flesh from the one above. Maybe they can be cooked?

That looks exactly like the Japanese turnip I grow. Perhaps a rouge seed got in there. Not Daikon, IMO.

What a rude and ignorant individual you are. You prove it time after time. We can all make typing errors, but we don't all possess brains or charm. Maybe you should apologise for your blatant ignorance, and creep back into your corner.

I can't spell very well on account of missing a lot of school due to illness. I find it quite offensive when people point out that I've made spelling mistakes.
