    This may seem like an incredibly dumb question, but how long is one to wait for radish seedpods to ripen for seed harvest?

    I sowed Cherry Belle Radishs on March 12th.

    Germination March 19th.
    Harvest Apr 25.
    May 11 the flower stocks were starting to open.

    and now, I'm just now starting to see some pods turning brown and becoming fairly brittle. Yet, these pods still have green seeds in them, so I must wait longer yet.

    Is this normal for Radishes? I hadn't planned for them to take this long, as I was hoping to use that space in the garden for something else this summer.
