Basic Horseradish Growing Information:

• Location Considerations: Horseradish require full sun. Since horseradish is a perennial and can continue to produce for many years, choose a spot that will not get disturbed. Horseradish roots can grow very large and will spread so plan garden space accordingly.
• Soil Type: Horseradish prefers rich composted & well drained soil. We do not recommend mulching or fertilizing your horseradish until the roots are established. Be sure not to plant in any media containing bark or wood chips. Do not plant into containers smaller than 1 gallon.
• Planting & Harvest:

1. Dig a trench about 4″-6″ deep. Trenches 12″-18″ apart.
2. Plant roots on a slight angle.
3. Water ~1″ per week.
4. To obtain the best crop, delay harvesting horseradish until late October or early November. Carefully dig the horseradish and cut off the foliage, about 1 inch above the crown.
5. Store horseradish in a refrigerator or root cellar at a temperature of 32-40 F, humidity 90-95%. Keep roots out of light.
6. You can also leave horseradish to overwinter and harvest in the early spring before growth resumes.
