How do you know when your radishes are ready to pick? Easy! They get a little… scandalous. 😉

They’ll start to show their “shoulders” right at the soil line, and that’s your cue to pull ’em!

My simple storage tip: Cut the greens off right away (this is key!) and pop the unwashed radishes in a bag in the fridge. They’ll stay crisp for weeks.

BUT WAIT! Don’t throw those greens away. That’s the 2-for-1 bonus! They are 100% edible. You can toss them in a salad, sauté them, or even make pesto. A total win!

You can sauté them, you can add them to a salad, or you can even make pesto out of them. I mean, at this point, is there anything radish can’t
