Cultivation Advice

CULTIVATION ADVICE RADISH MOOLI MINOWASE

Radishes grow best in cool, moist weather (50 – 65F/10 – 18C). Late plantings may bolt before edible root forms. Avoid sowing in the UK between Jun and Aug as plants will bolt.

Plant outside in full sun from spring onwards as early as soil can be loosened and worked. Plant 1 seed every inch lightly covering with soil. These plants get large so do not sow thickly.
When plants have 3 leaves, thin to 2 inches apart keeping weed free. Thinnings can be used for both leaves and roots.
Best sown at 3 week intervals for a continuous harvest.
