GROWING RADISHES AND STORAGE
You can easily grow radishes yourself and they have quick results. You sows seed in a line behind each other, wait 4 to 6 weeks and if the radish is pretty big, you harvest it. The little ones you can just left to grow further. By removing the large radishes, the small once get more space to grow. Wash them off immediately and pull the leaves off. The foliage extracts moisture from the radish, which makes it spongy and it will have a shorter shelf life.
Are there any problems with growing radishes you ask? The only thing you have to consider when growing radishes is that the soil remains moist. When it will become dry the radishes will burst and you certainly don’t want that. Grow them yourself and in spring, summer and fall you always have fresh radishes at hand.
But you can also just buy radishes in bags at the grocery store. Is the foliage (green) still attached then you first take that off. Then save them lightly packed in the refrigerator. That way the remain good for about two weeks.
