We had a salad this evening which meant eating more of the bountiful crop of lettuces and joining them this time was the radish crop which was finally ready ( as well as lots of shop bought bits and pieces!).
We only took a few radishes, so there are plenty more for further meals. These are the lucky radishes who made the cut.

| Crop of French Breakfast radishes |
Not exactly uniform size and shape, I've no idea how supermarket produce all seem to look exactly the same! It's quite tricky to tell how long each radish is until they are uprooted, as they all looked much the same when in the ground. They tasted very nice though, not as peppery as other radishes, but nice and crunchy. From hole in the ground to on the dinner plate and eaten in less than an hour, you can't get much fresher than that!
So now the postings for French Breakfast radish are complete, and by clicking on the link "French Breakfast Radish" you can see the photos and growth from seed to harvest. This one can be put down as a success I think.
