Day 25: I Ate a Radish I Grew
I harvested my first radish today. 25 days from seed to plate. It was small, spicy, and the best thing I’ve ever eaten.
The root was poking out of the soil. That’s the signal — the guide said so.
How I Harvested
Watered first. Grabbed the base of the leaves. Pulled straight up. It came out clean.
What It Looked Like
A perfect round red radish. About 1 inch wide. Smaller than store-bought but perfect.
How It Tasted
Peppery. Spicy. Fresh. I sliced it thin, added salt, ate it standing at the counter.
What I Felt
Proud. Ridiculous, I know. But I grew that.
What’s Next
More radishes in 5 days. Lettuce soon. Basil is still small.
