I've found main pests tend to be grasshoppers and caterpillers. You can grow them with daikon radish in between. They have bigger leaves and grow more vigorously so tend to attract pests. They are also reported to be good for soil system in similar way to rocket. In Japan they grow them in the rows between orchards for soil quality and to suppress pests.

I am also using fresh radish with sushi instead of wasabi. Delicious!

I am wondering if you are able to make a paste like the horseradish paste you buy from the store but from the pink radishes as i have noticed that the flavour of my pink radish has a bite to it similar to that of the horseradish root. Meanwhile i will try to make it using my Grandmothers horseradish paste recipe and let you know how i go.

i left radish plants in garden last summer. they have kept growing. now they are a large twisted root with branches coming of them with small white flowers. i have noticed that there i a large amount of pods.on each plant. on closer inspection of the pods i have found that each pod i picked has 2 or 3 green seeds. if i pick the pods a this stage and dried them will i get viable seed. i would like to do this as i have kept this garden bed organic as much as i can. i cant stop the bees cross pollinating. but im still trying to keep it organic. Thanks for your help

Try and wait until the pods are dried. I did this with a few plants and had more seeds for next year than I knew what to do with :)

I came back from 5 weeks in europe with too much weight on. My winter crop of radish had matured and I added to eveything I cooked. I lost 6 kilos in 7 weeks, but I did eat baby spinach, little cucumbers all mixed in a greek salad at each meal with fetta cheese and apple vinegar and sesame oil dressing. Have I found the great weight loss? Or, is it the very small meals with meat and veg?
