When to Harvest Radish
« on: June 01, 2009, 14:14 »
Hi all,

My first time at growning veg. I wanted to know when should i harvest my first lot of radish from my sq ft garden as it does not say on the packet and the plants are looking big. I sowed the seeds direct into the plot on the 2nd May

See how big the radish is under the leaves. If it's big enough to eat - eat it!
Did it really tell you to do THAT on the packet?

I'm chomping at the bit to harvest mine...even though I don't like them. I've grown them for himself..I just pick the odd one out to see how big they've gotten every few days or so...

Keep them damp or they will stay small and go to seed.

I lift my leaves, if I can see a radish, I pull it!
