Rubbish Radishes.

My radishes, container grown because of big footed dog are all top growth and root, but no radish this year. I can only think I didn't plant them deep enough, or is it too much rain ? Can any better gardeners then me, with my hit or miss system offer advice.

Hi MR few things in the garden are as they should be this year with this unseasonal weather.

You could always eat the leaves, they are peppery and nice chopped in a salad or 'wilted' in steam and butter.
