25 days. Raphanus sativus. Open Pollinated. Champion Radish. This early maturing plant produces excellent yields of 1 to 1 ½” diameter radishes. These radishes are the size of a silver dollar. The bright scarlet red solid skin surrounds a crisp snow-white flesh that has just the right amount of radish taste. They are crunchy and very flavorful. Perfect for salads and garnishes. Grows well in containers. Suitable for short-season climates. Replant every two weeks for a continuous crop. Excellent choice for home gardens, market growers, and open field production.

Radish Seed Planting Information:

Plant seeds outdoors directly in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked. Radish roots do not grow well in hot summer, so plant early spring or in the fall. Plant successive plantings every few weeks to have a steady supply of radishes. Plant 3 - 4 weeks before last frost in spring, and 6 weeks before first frost in fall. Plants are 2" to 6" tall.

Soil Requirements:

Requires loose fertile soil in a well drained location in the garden. Apply much and grass clippings, or straw around base of plant.

Water Requirements:

Keep soil uniformly moist and from drying out.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use RootBlast, Vegetable Alive, and Slow Release Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Periodically apply Miracle Gro.

Harvest Tips:

Dig or pull roots when they are mature. If left in ground too long, they will crack and taste bitter.
