Posted by We seem to have been growing mandrakes instead of parsnips and carrots – can only surmise that our soil is too hard for them – makes them a mare to clean and peel – tasty though!
At least our Maris Piper potatoes have come out great!
I’ve just dug up our horseradish, which wasn’t quite what I was expecting either – was thinking there would be bigger ‘tubers’ – there’s not really much to work with here. Wonder if I dug it up too early or if it was because I planted it quite late…..
If anyone has any ideas/advice – would love to hear.
Whenever I’ve tried to grow Horseradish I’ve had pretty similar results to you, just lots of tiny stringy roots. I have no idea what the secret is to growing it, but hopefully someone does!
Glad it’s not just me then! May have to see if anyone can enlighten us
