Against common advice for root plants like radish, I transplanted the sprouts to the best of my ability. I have limited garden space now, but every potential space received a radish sprout. I didn't have high expectations, but, again, I gave them a chance.
They grew.
Most of them had only leaves. I thinned those and made delicious radish leaf soup. Others started to form actual radishes.

... and best of all, in the sunny locations the radishes grew quite a lot! As you can see, the variety that made it was the Daikon type. We've been having many tasty soups these winter. The roots are quite strong, but the leaves are so good. Even Little Kid (who is not very adventurous in trying new flavors) gave them a try.
I don't know. The thought that came to me was, maybe give your seeds a chance, the real ones and the metaphorical ones.
