Planting & Care

Plant horseradish roots in early spring or fall, setting them about 2-3 inches deep and 12-18 inches apart in a sunny to partially shaded location. Choose a spot with well-draining soil to prevent rot. Water regularly during the first growing season to help establish a strong root system. Horseradish is a vigorous grower and can become invasive, so consider planting it in a contained area or raised bed to keep it in check.

Once established, horseradish requires minimal care. Mulch around the plants to conserve moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest roots in late fall after the first frost for the best flavor, or leave them in the ground and harvest as needed. Divide plants every few years to maintain vigor.
