The radishes and cilantro have bolted and gone to seed

Here's a URL to some really nice things to do with radish
plants - and their seed pods.
https://www.ruralsprout.com/radish-pods

Thanks.

If the weather holds I just might be able to harvest some pods
before first frost. Roslind planted the seeds in the middle of June
and so far we just have blossoms.

This winter I can grow some sprouts. I find alfalfa and clover
sprouts exceedingly bland but mustard and radish sprouts have a nice flavour.

I first got onto radish pods when I was raising a small(ish) garden
behind the garage and got called out of town for a couple weeks during
which time the radishes went nuts to the point I was presented with bug
bushy plants containing multiple seed pods when I came home. At that
time I was a regular reader of/subscriber to the original Mother Earth
News and I had recently (at that time) seen an artile on radish pods.

So, I dug out the issue and gave the techniques/recipes contained a
whirl. Good Stuff, Maynard!

The next year I planted (from those same seed pods an area for eating
radishes and another to let go to seed. Bv)=
