Radishes are harvested much like any other root vegetable (such as carrots), by gently pulling up on the green leaves on top of the plant, and pulling the root (the radish) from the ground. Be sure to grasp the entire cluster of leaves to prevent them from breaking off, and leaving the radish in the ground. This is easier to do if the soil is slightly damp, maybe a day or so after a rain or being watered.

Radishes remain in edible condition for only a short time before they become pithy (spongy) and hot. Proper thinning focuses the harvest and avoids disappointing stragglers that have taken too long to develop.

The soil needs to be probed carefully to verify root length, strength and thickness. Radishes require removal when roots measure 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) in length.
