These bright red radishes are perfectly round and have pure white flesh of delightful flavor and crispness. Strong, short-length tops make pickling easy. Roots remain firm long after picking.
SOWING:
Plant seed outdoors as soon as the ground can be worked. Plant rows 12 inches apart, spacing seeds 1/2 inch apart in the row. Cover seed with 1/8 inch fine soil, well pressed down. Keep moist until plants start to grow.
THINNING:
When plants are 1 to 2 inches tall, thin or transplant, spacing plants 2 inches apart.
GERMINATION:
7 to 10 days depending on soil and weather conditions.
REMARKS:
Radishes may be planted in the same row as slow-growing vegetables such as carrots or lettuce. To grow the best radishes, the crop must grow quickly; therefore, the soil must be loose and enriched with fertilizer.
