root vegetables: when to pick?
We have garlic, beets and radishes; some years, also turnips, sometimes
carrots. None ever seem to reach the full advertised size, but they do grow. I'm never sure when to say they've done all the growing they're going to do. For garlic, I've read to wait until the tops "dry out". I dig them after the stalks are all lying down, even though there's still some green showing. For the beets, etc, I pick them when the bulb has pushed about 1/2-way up through the surface. Comments appreciated. TIA, George |
