Radish and related vegetables, such as daikon radish and radish, are crunchy root vegetables with a fresh, spicy flavor. They grow quickly and are ideal for raw vegetables, salads, pickles, or light dishes.
Radishes are fast-growing vegetables and can be harvested within 3 to 5 weeks of sowing. Sowing regularly guarantees a continuous harvest. Perfect for professional gardeners who want efficient and reliable production.
Radish can be sown year-round, except during severe frosts. Sow in a cold frame from February onwards, or directly in the ground from March through September.
Sow the seeds 1 cm deep, keeping a distance of about 5 cm between the seeds. Thin the seedlings once they emerge.
Radishes bolt quickly with insufficient water or excessive heat. Ensure consistent moisture and harvest on time.
A potassium deficiency or too much nitrogen can hinder tuber formation. Provide a balanced diet and, if necessary, choose a plot of land that isn't heavily fertilized.
There are many varieties, such as the round red radishes, the elongated white radish (icicle), colored bunches and the spicy black radish.
