INTRODUCING RADISH SEEDS

Originating in Southeast Asia, radishes have been grown in gardens worldwide for many centuries. Prized for their easy cultivation and somewhat peppery flavor, these root vegetables are versatile in the kitchen. They’re eaten raw or pickled, sometimes cooked. Radishes grow well in USDA hardiness zones 2 to 10. Because of this, they are accessible to basically all gardeners. Rapid growth cycle and adaptability to cooler temperatures make radishes a stellar choice for spring and fall planting.

HOW TO PLANT RADISH SEEDS

Successful radish crops start with sowing. Do it directly in the garden or container, about half an inch deep and 1 inch apart. Make space in rows 6 inches apart. Radishes prefer cool conditions. Because of this, they are usually one of the first crops planted in early spring. Radish seed germination will start quite fast, between 5 to 10 days. Practice succession planting every two weeks to get a continuous supply. Radishes are excellent choices for container gardening due to their size and quick growth.

MAINTAINING RADISH PLANTS

Radish plants require little maintenance. They thrive with regular watering, which encourages rapid and uniform root development. Thin seedlings to about 2 inches apart to prevent overcrowding. Radishes are generally resistant to pests and diseases, which makes them amazing for beginners!
