Secret to the best radish dish. Cut in half or quarter depending on size and join them with brussel sprouts in half or quarter depending on size. Next spray them with the balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with garlic,salt,pepper,onion powder,thyme and olive oil and roast 20 to 30 min at 425

You can eat the fresh seed pods, when still green, very tasty (there is a variety called rat's tail with extra large seed pods for eating)

I had troubles getting the radishes to bulb out when I first started gardening, had massive leaves and nothing but taproot under the soil. I noticed you had a couple as well. I believe the main cause for this is dense, compacted soil. Radishes want looser soil to easily expand in. Maybe those Daikon varieties you mentioned don't care how compact the soil is so they can loosen it up, but these other varieties need a bit better quality soil.

I got lots of leaves, no radishes,

Last year I discovered roasted radishes! Prepare like a mini potato in a bit of oil. Top with herbed butter. Absolutely delicious!

My one a half year old niece found the radishes in my garden, and loved them. One of my proudest gardener moments. Teething babies love radishes I guess haha. Grow on!

Kevin - Recently I placed my first order with Botanical Interests. I was pleasantly surprised to find the “Thank You” note and complimentary seed packet. It is little things like that which make a big difference.

I use the radish greens to make a green soup that is a killer. I also put broccoli, cauliflower and brussel sprout leaves in there too. Hardly anything goes in the compost.

Radish pods get fibrous quickly in my experience

Great tips! As a beginner I tried to grow radishes in containers on my north-facing balcony last November in Taipei Taiwan (about zone 11 for reference). Being in full shade they grew slower than the seed packet indicated, but they survived and I got ok harvests, just needed some mulching around the excessive grown seedlings to support them and 2x time and patience (I waited for 8 weeks instead of 4). Chopped the whole plants up - leaves and bulbs - for a hot-pot dinner and they taste nice! I'm looking forward to my 2nd crop of radish now and will continue to succession plant those until the weather's too hot for them. I'd like to point out that at 2:34 the watermelon radish variety Mantanghong the syllables should be man-tang-hong (滿堂紅) and translates into "all red for the family" - red is considered a lucky color and is used a lot in traditional Chinese new year decorations. So the name brings an "all good fortune and blessings for your family members" vibe.

If you're completely new to gardening it wouldn't be a bad idea to only sow radishes the first year just to find out if gardening is something for you. So easy to do, quick satisfaction and you can eat all parts of it so you get a lot of bang for you buck.

Yall making me feel crazy for just loving to pop em out of the dirt while watering each morning and eating em raw. If they even make it to the kitchen they go great with salty butter in a baguette

Arugula, radish, strawberries, blue cheese, pecan salad!!!😊

I really enjoy these types of videos. While I am here for the Gardening content; I can’t forget the other half of gardening: eating! From the history to the planting to the harvest to the consuming. That’s the best content for me.

As a chef that works in a exceptionally humid environment I'd recommend keeping your boos block under a weight that'll keep it flat. The boards going to swell and shrink with the weather but if you can keep it mostly flat under weight it'll last you many more years Than it should've. Much love keep the good content coming!

My most successful radish harvest was from a dense multi sewing. I thinned a small amount and snacked on the microgreens. The compost was loose enough, even radishes touching one another still developed nicely.

In Germany radishes are traditionally eaten with bread for dinner or Brotzeit (literally bread time) which is usually eaten somewhere between 8 and 10am as a second breakfast.

I just harvested some of those Cherry Belle radishes and it’s the first radish I’ve actually enjoyed!

Because radishes grow so quickly, I use them in beds for slow-growing plants that later need all the space in the bed, such as courgettes, and I use radishes to mark rows, e.g. of carrots, so it is easier to see where they have been sown.

Everyone says they’re easy to grow but it’s very hit and miss in my garden. I get lots of leaves and hardly any root. The only time I got foot radishes was when I fertilized with a low nitrogen fertilizer. I grow in containers and raised beds with potting soil!

I grow radishes and beets to use for breakfast sprouts with my morning bagel, cream cheese, tomato and basil AND, I love giving my chickens the thinned out ones, along with the green tops at harvest!! The chickens are great little garbage disposals, and they turn it all into gold!! Their manure mixed into any soil is AWESOME

Mine haven't grown well at all this year so I'm glad this video has come out. Cheers! Also, the best way to cook them is whole with the leaves, grilled on the BBQ 😋

Every time I watch this channel and radishes come up, it seems French Breakfast is a favored radish.

I love growing radishes, super fun and easy crop to grow, I didn't even like radishes before I grew my own and tried it now I love them 😂 such a difference in taste imo between home grown and grocery store varieties

I like yo leave about 2” the green top on the radish. This provides a bit of a “handle” to hold on to if you are slicing the radish. Hope this helps.

@@chizick14 Honestly? I've never had radish it's raw form before. So, I'm not sure what it "should" taste like. XD But I do like the flavor. It's starts off with a bit of sweet, earthy flavor and then like a second after you bite into it, there's this strong sharp spicy to it. I've been using it in my salads for an extra kick to them. As far as growing... it's been doing awesome. No real pests so far and they seem to grow super fast.

So easy and so fast I like to use them for grow experiments, side by sides etc.

My grandmother grew up in the countryside of the state of Virgi,. She and my great-grandmother used to make pig feet in the oven.

Watching directly after picking some of my botanical interests french breakfast radishes this morning! They very the quickest variety by far I planted this year which is nice since living in MN our spring doesn't really start until May.

Try sautéing the greens. They go great with olive oil and pepper.

One of my favorite radishes is the Giant of Sicily. Fast growing and sweet.

I love that you mixed different varieties of radishes in the grow bag. Pick what you want for each meal. Awesome. Thank you, love you channel. ❤

Awesome. I bought the easter egg mix, french breakfast and cherry belle. Love it. Waiting patiently to it to germinate

Certain radishes are also very good at deterring aphids and pests. I sow them around the outside of my garden paired with Marigolds.

I am making sure to save this video for when I start my garden in 2030 ❤

"Grow Bag Gardening" is definitely on my very near future read list. Love the channel and all the material here, so I imagine the book is a great read!

Great vid as usual! I've not had great luck with radishes here in 9b. Last year I planted them in late spring. Some grew prolific greens but no bulbs before flowering. Others, I waited too long to harvest and they were woody. This year I started some mid winter with some success. Succession planted some more a few weeks later (cusp of spring) but they went to flower before ever developing bulbs even though the weather was cool. I like "seed to harvest" videos but It would be helpful to know the date when you started yours to better gauge optimum planting time considering that they don't seem to be a particularly good summer crop. BTW, watch all your videos: love your channel!

I grew a ton of radish my first year. I just never came around to them. I’m sure if I made them into kimchi it would be good, but I have very limited space. Keep it up Eric!

I did the trick with the daikon radishes to break up compacted soil. Not sure how well it worked, since I've just let that patch run wild. They ate up to my shoulders with dainty white & pink flowers, and the pollinators are loving them. I'm going to try harvesting the seed pods for salads

I'm not a huge radish fan, but I bought your french breakfast radishes. I'm excited to harvest them!

I need to try shading mine. I grow them inside in hydro with no problem. But I think my outdoor ones were held back because it was cold, then next thing you know... hot at heck! But, I love them roasted!

I don't even really like radishes but now I can't wait to plant and see them grow. Thanks ✌️

Thanks so much for the info! I just planted cherry bell radish.

i failed to grow radish (pink lady slippers) at first year of my garden in containers (excessively watering/fertilizing), and they came out a really tiny bulbs with huge leaves.. I'm going to grow them again this year, and i hope i can harvest the healthy sized bulbs!

Had my first successful radish harvest this year, with Sparklers. They're so pretty, tasty, and mild.

Thanks for sharing these treasures ❤

I just checked my radishes and they are starting to flower but don't yet have enough of an edible root. What caused this? Heat? Not enough water? Will the root continue to grow if I pinch off the flowers?

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but sautéed radish greens are quite delicious. Try with a little garlic and lemon juice, salt and pepper.

Family radish tradition from North Dakota - always had a dish of fresh radish at the table with dinner - otherwise, que my grandfather saying something to the effect of “why cant we ever get a radish around here” (so dramatic) and then my gramma going to the fridge and putting together a plate - with a side of salt. Always, with EVERY meal. ;)

I love Cherry Belle’s 👊🏻🌻👊🏻

I love roasted radishes. I drizzle with olive oil and then roast them with other root crops.

Where I'm from the most common way to use radishes is puting them in a salad - mix chopped radishes, onion leaves, salad leaves, a good amount of salt and sour cream. It's the best natural vitamin bomb in early spring

Beginner it was very good info thakyou❤

Twice have made a yummy Radish-potato soup with bacon to use up my Radishes. --- Noticed Radish likes bolts(flowers) after 70°F.

Oh, I love radishes now that I have learned I can eat them just fine just buy baking them. I don’t need them or a E baked. They are so good. I love them.

I use radish in my soup when my turnips aren't ready, even the greens of the radish when it is young.

I'll be watching this for sure. I have never been able to grow radishes lol

When i was young, my mother would clean radishes then separately, carrots and celery, thoroughly washing with dish soap, rinsing very well, cutting off ALL greens and tops/bottoms (celery and radish roots) and then she had a lot of old jars, like PB jars. She'd fill the jar with one rype of veg, fill with water, and pop in the fridge!? Was this not a good way? I'll tell ya, they were always prepped, icy cold and delicious so they never lasted long enough to find out, I guess. My dad just loved munching on them!! I vaguely recall maybe the same method with their fresh grown rhubarb (a crop I've not seen your channel cover!!?) but I may not be remembering correctly. We had a patch growing in the corner of our garden bc my dad loved strawberry rhubarb pie. Oddly, we never grew strawberries!!!!! Our only fruit was a plum tree. HA!

No joke, I just planted radishes for the first time earlier today. Kind of crazy to see this in my recommended!

My favorite are the radish pods. If you pick them Yung and eat them fresh out of the garden they taste like a spicy pea

I love to add radish to curries for a delicious tasty crunch.

I love it when they taste spicy and earthy.

The tops taste amazing!! Similar to arugula. You can also make pesto out of them 😍

Great video.. I really love radishes. How deep does the soil need to be for normal red or breakfast radishes? Can I mix up the dirt in a bag after a harvest and replant the bag? Do I need to add amendments to the soil if I do that. Thanks for sharing and would love a radish recipe video if you are up to it… but plain with a touch of salt is great!

My problem I have had the last couple years with radish has been mice. This spring every radish had been tasted by mice. This fall I may try them in a grow bag.

Very useful tips brother

"scraps to the chickens" looks like you have some growing to do in the kitchen. The greens are amazing, young leaves I like raw and the older ones simply sautéed in ghee with some salt pepper

I picked one of mine early, but it was the best tasting radish Iever had.

Radishes are so easy to grow... But so hard to love eating 😂

I like the salt tip, thanks

The radish leaves are delicious in a potato and radish leaf soup. Sauté onions and then garlic. Add vegetable broth and cut potatoes. Season with salt, pepper, crushed red pepper, and thyme. Cook until potatoes are tender and add in chopped radish leaves. Simmer for a few minutes. Then blend with an immersion blender.

I swear you read my mind, I was just eyeing radish seeds yesterday

We are indian and we make curry of everything 😂 I will grow a lot of radishes this season. Thanks for your tips 👍🏻
