Growing Horseradish

Yes, ours certainly seems to be stronger after a second year but the roots are very spindly and they are not easy to peel. Any tips on growing a thicker root? However, to make the sauce and not being too keen on hand grating, I first grated the root with the food processor. This gave thin matchsticks but also lots of lumps, then I added some vinegar and used the chopper to cut it finer and it worked well. I also added some hot mustard to give it a bit more zing.
