There are even some kinds of radish developed for eating the pods when they are green. To harvest seed, let the pods stay on the plants as long as possible, until they are dry. Letting a few of your plants go through their full life cycle is a great way to learn about seed saving. If you ever want to learn more, I teach seed saving workshops at our seed farm upstate and in the city.

Maybe because your's was an heirloom. In any case, I think it is so neat that you produced your own radish seed!

I've never seen seedpods on them either. Cool! :)Racquelhttp://perennialgardener.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
