A farmer has a big problem on his hands after his crop of cauliflowers grew so huge shops won’t stock them.

Expert grower Martin Godfrey is now desperately trying to sell the whopping veg at farmers' markets after supermarkets rejected them for being just too much for their shelves.

Mr Godfrey, 43, who has farmed Shillingford Organics at Shillingford Abbot, near Exeter, Devon, for six seasons, was stumped after his two acres of caulies defied the elements to grow to five times size the average size.

The monster caulies weigh in at 5.5 Ilbs and are 18 inches in diameter, compared to half a pound and 5 inch diameter for an average sized one.

Mr Godfrey sewed around two acres of cauliflowers with a handheld seed drill in May.The varieties included Long-ships, Christingle, Galleon, Sky-walker and Medallion.

The farm is fully organic and the seeds go into field nursery beds with the cold weather triggering growth.

He thinks the fact he sewed the seeds straight in to the fields rather than in glasshouses may be why they grew so big.
