Growing Horseradish in North Georgia: Perfect Climate, Easy Start

Horseradish loves long, cool seasons—Rabun County is ideal. Plant a grocery-store root at a 45° angle, top just below soil. Big leaves emerge fast. Harvest by cutting outer roots as needed. Caution: it spreads; contain it or accept a permanent patch.
