Radishes are a quick producing vegetable which makes them always a great beginner plant to grow. After planting your seeds you only have to wait about 30 days before they’re ready to pick. Don’t you love that quick producing turnaround?
I hope you guys got your seeds planted after the How To I posted. I wanted to show you the harvest that we got that was picked from that very post. I am totally in love with these Radishes and have been including them in almost every single pasta dish we are eating. Who doesn’t love a radish as a snack too?
After a few weeks your radishes will begin to pop out of your container. They will just get bigger and bigger. Most radishes are ready to pick at around 30 days so once they’re popping out, just yank them up!
For radishes I will usually start by picking 1 or 2 to enjoy as I need it and then I’ll just clear the entire container and pick them all. Radishes store well so you can enjoy them for a few weeks after harvesting.
And then immediately after they were picked, a new bunch of seeds were planted! I’ll keep on doing this process until Fall.
Did you guys plant radishes?
Tell me about it in the comments!

Your home grown radishes look amazing & so pretty too!
I never succeeded in growing them, they were always so tiny!

I planted red rover, cherry belle, purple plum, and watermelon radishes. I will be planting daikon in late summer also.
I LOVE RADISHES!

So so pretty! I love radishes and have never tried planting them – you make it sound so easy. It’s so inspiring watching all your veggies grow 🙂

Cutest little radishes ever! Love your little rooftop garden- too adorable for words.
I too, love how quick little radishes grow, only wish the rest of the family would eat them too!
Planted next to my carrots because they take so dang long to germinate, hoping everything grows well!!

Awww, Johnny’s Seeds is within walking distance of my childhood home in Maine. Good old Benton Avenue. 🙂 Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Living in Australia I don’t see Johnny’s Seeds.
My father would let us plant radish seeds as kids because they were the only things we had patience enough to wait to grow. I grew up to love gardening. I would LOVE to see your garden in person one day when I come to New York to visit my sister.

Oh, your radishes are so cute!!! I love them dipped in a little butter and them some salt.

Yup, planted radishes. Need to get another crop in, though, because I planted something else in their spot. But my spinach has just about had it, so that space is reserved for more radishes! Yours look great, BTW.
Anna says
Oh wow, your garden is the business. I didn’t plant any radish this year, but in the past have been very successful, I could never get through the crop we always get so many. First world gardening problems huh?! I’ll add to the list to include for our Spring/Summer crop. Have a rippa day Pamela, happy gardening. x

Melanie @ Carmel Moments says
I wish I would have planted radishes. But I guess it’s never too late. Are you they an easy veggie to grow?
Pamela says
Start now and you’ll have them in a month! They are hands down one of the best beginner easy veggies to grow!
