- gently close the holes
Then it's time for thinning out. It's tough to do - but with radishes, that's extra important because the root needs to grow into thick bulbs.
If the plants are too close together, only the leaves will grow, and you won't get radishes. That also happens if you try to transplant them, as it damages the root.
What do you need?

How do you use French Radish?
But you can also stew, fry, or roast them in the oven. They become juicier and a bit milder in flavor.
Don't forget the leaves, because you can eat those too. Young leaves raw in salads and slightly older leaves in mashed dishes, stir-fries, or pasta.
