- For goodness sake, you should be able to grow horseradish in Minnesota.
- I do all the time here in sunny Rochester. My plants grow about 5 feet tall
- and invade everything. We harvested a whole wheel barrow of root this fall
- and made upwards of 50 pints of sauce. We just love it. I am interested
- in trying the beets and horseradish suggestion.
-
- Some notes about where I grow it. I started with sandy soil that has a lot
- horse manure added (horse radish...horse manure, there might be a connection
- there). I drop in a root and then stand back or it might knock me over.
-
- Cheers!

- P.S. Process it in a well ventilated area. When canned, it mellows out.
