Do you think that if I switched it on before I open the microwave door it would suck the offending radiation out onto neighbours garden, then if his plants start to roots upwards and petals down it will prove the point about radiation?

I recall from elementary education that there is a difference between radiation and forced convection, if I read your account correctly. The microwave radiation appears because, very roughly, electrons resonate in a cavity - and this radiation can more 'easily' travel to your neighbour's garden if you disable the door switch. The less rough description cannot be given in terms with which most folk are familiar. It's quantum-mechanical, though no less fun for that reason.
