Mutant radish?
I have had a bunch of radishes going wild this year that re-seeded
from last year. All of them looked the same, with the bulbous root and the lanky stem, the typical leaves, and the white flowers. Until this came along: http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/P1170634.jpg http://i868.photobucket.com/albums/a...s/P1170636.jpg The leaves and flowers and color are all the same as the others, but its stem is about three times the thickness of that of any other radish plant I have. It's so thick it's begun to crack. Is this a mutation? The result of odd pollination? Not a radish at all? |

Mutant radish?
Can you give us a picture of the radishes that you know are radishes?
That way we can compare the leaves better. I don’t think that is a radish. Close comparison of the leaves will tell. |

I will as best I can. Cut most of them down already once they went to seed. They were blocking a lot of light. Stay tuned... |
