Help with Horseradish
For several years I have tried to grow Horseradish . but only produce
plants with long skinny roots that are useless for grating.Can anyone advise me how to get thick roots more like a carrot. I live in Perth WA. Is the climate wrong ? , This is my 1st posting. |

My Dad has a similar result here in Sydney on clay soil (which is what we thought the problem was!), but he still grates whatever he can get. I would suggest not putting too much nitrogen on it, or you might end up with all leaves and no roots. Try plenty of mulch to improve the soil's texture though. BTW, you use horseradish leaves in pickling to keep cucumbers firm. -- Chookie -- Sydney, Australia (Replace "foulspambegone" with "optushome" to reply) "Life is like a cigarette -- smoke it to the butt." -- Harvie Krumpet |
