Ok the butter thing sounds kind of nasty, does he cook them or what? I'm like you, I eat them like popcorn when I watch tv. They are the best! I am trying to get as many in the ground now as I can before it gets too hot. The summers here are so hot and miserable (90-100's), I have to water 2 - 3 times a day! So I'm thinking I should wait until August to replant. This is my very first real garden (have only done pots before) and if I would have known these would have so easy to grow I would have planted them along time ago!johnny123 wrote:Me too.

I have a friend who likes to put some slices in them and then fills them with butter.
Nice looking bunches you got there.
I put in a row every week in the spring until the middle of june and then start planting them again in late summer when the days get cooler.
That sux! I hope your next crop does well and you will get some good eats soon, for FREE! You said I was rubbing it in, I think Johnny "one upped" me with his .59 cents! loljasbo wrote:Go ahead. Rub it in. I have to run down to the grocery story and spill 79 cents to get my radish fix. Maybe in a week or two I'll get a harvest. My first planting just kind of sat there.

I planted a little early, around the first of April. They were the first things in my garden to come up and have gone crazy. I'm in heaven! I also planted sugar peas for the first time and those things are like 2 feet tall! I can not wait to see a pod, I eat them raw. loljal_ut wrote:Oh WOW! Mine just barely came up.
Man, I love butter more than most people, to the point when I add extra to a dish I call it "love" but I just don't think I can hang with that. lol I have no idea what the radishes are around here now, I haven't looked for a couple months BUT I do have to go to the store tomorrow so I will most definitely check. I'm on a mission.......johnny123 wrote:No, he eats them raw with butter.
He puts 2 slices into the radish and fills them with butter.
I have never tried it.
As far as the 59 cent radishes go I didn't buy them I just keep an eye on prices when I'm at the produce market.
OH! Very interesting idea, a must try for me! Thanks Kisal!Kisal wrote:I like radishes fried, like you would use potatoes to make hash browns. YUM!

Every time I enjoy radishes I have to have industrial strength Tums for dessert...
