The old Germans where I grew up said that horseradish needed to be dug in a
month with an 'r' in it,  September through April.  -- usualluy in the late
fall. We never dig all the plants at once, but divide in late August early
September like peonies.  With a ten year old plant -- you could likely take
about half of the roots, and leave the rest for next year, and transplant.

would like to know when the best time to dig it up would be and can we dig
up part or does it need to be all? Can we replant what we don't need?
