   My sister brought these to me on Saturday. I have pretty good sized hands. She knows the people who grow them and she is welcome to as many as she wants. They're going to tell her how it's done. They also grow cabbage the size of basketballs.

     @bufordk what the hell do you do with them? I always mean to make borscht but I forget and they go bad unused :(

     Pickle them or roast them or you could boil them although I prefer the first two.

     @bufordk never really considered pickling my own beetroot, which is odd given my pickle-obsession... Good idea, cheers!

     @Sophistifunk I pseudo pickled this beets this past weekend. Here is what I used. I didn't do a proper heat and pressure canning for long-term. I just put up enough to last 7-10 days . This method also works great for that. Only changes I made was 1/2 the sugar and pink salt instead of pickling salt. I cracked one of the jars for dinner tonight and ate about 1/3 of that before I actually cooked dinner!

     @bufordk Awesomesauce, cheers. Not really interested in proper canning, just want to be able to make use of them when they turn up in my vegie box. I rarely have a use for an entire beetroot 😂

     @Sophistifunk
     This'll do it for you if you have more than one meal's worth. Cheers.
