Although GH is also produced by mammary tumors in dogs, there has been no report with clinically obvious acromegaly induced by GH-producing mammary tumors. Excess growth hormone invariably results in insulin resistance at the hepatic and muscular level, resulting in heightened insulin production.
Harvest your spring radishes, including âWhite Burpee,â âEaster Egg,â or âPlum Purple,â within 30 to 60 days after sowing. Monitor the radishes daily during this period by pushing the ground away from the vegetables and checking their size. Look for ripe spring radishes of 1 inch in diameter.
DISEASES: Many root crop diseases can be avoided by practicing a 3-year rotation and with proper garden sanitation. Consult your local county extension agent for specific problems. HARVEST: Radishes can be harvested as early as late fall, other roots can be harvested through the winter and into spring. Harvest all root crops when they have reached their desired size. Like cole crops, most root crops have a sweeter, fuller taste after 1 or 2 freezes. In colder zones, a covering of 1â2 feet of straw in the late fall and winter will keep the soil from freezing and will allow you to dig your roots all winter.
