This unusual radish looks like a watermelon when sliced. The round white roots have green shoulders and are 2 inches in diameter. The inside flesh is red to pink, sweet and crisp. Large tops make for easy picking. Best when picked small.
SOWING:
Plant seed outdoors as soon as the ground can be worked. Plant seeds 1/2 inch apart in rows 12 inches apart and cover with 1/8 inch of soil, well pressed down. Keep soil moist until seeds start to grow. For continuous harvest, plant every week through September.
THINNING:
When plants are 1 to 2 inches tall, thin to 4 inches apart in the row.
GERMINATION:
7 to 10 days depending on soil and temperature conditions.
REMARKS:
To grow the best radishes, the crop must grow quickly; therefore, the soil must be loose and enriched with fertilizer. Water in absence of rain.
