Hi, Welcome to the forum.

Harvesting just requires digging out the root. Don't worry if some of the little rootlets don't come up. They will become new plants for next year.

but with what can i dig it up i dont want to hart it

Hi and welcome. I don't know anything about horseradish but you can post a pic by joining a free photo site. I use Photobucket. You upload there and copy and paste to here.

is it ok that my horseradish looks like this?

That's a heathy big bunch of horseradish you have there. I can't wait until my patch gets that big. What did you think was wrong with it?

the leafs suddnly changed and i dident knew why


and thenks for you'r replay

you can't hurt horseradish. It is very aggressive. This fall just dig up as much as you want. Anything that you don't want that you dig up just cut into two inch chunks and bury at a 22 degree angle. It will grow you another plant. And as I said the rootlets that get left in the soil also produce new plants.

thanks reely reely thnk you

Your welcome, enjoy your horseradish sauce. I only have one plant this year but I plant to dig up the root and section it into piece and then replant it. So that next year I'll have plenty.

by the way when i make the sauce can i replace the vinegar with something else?

You could make "creamy horseradish" using a mayonnaise base I think. I saw it on a cooking program but I can't remember which one at this point.
