Groundhog Radish Seeds

Be the first to review this product

24 days. Raphanus sativus. Open Pollinated. Groundhog Radish. The plant produces very large radishes. The radishes have an extensive root mass that aerates the soil and pulls nitrogen and other nutrients back to the soil surface for ready use for next season's crop. If planted in late summer, the radishes are not harvested or turned under but left to die off in the winter and decay to contribute to a nitrogen store for spring planting. Excellent soil builder, cover crops, and livestock and wildlife feed. Excellent choice for home gardens, market growers, and open field production. A variety from the USA.

24 days. Raphanus sativus. Open Pollinated. Groundhog Radish. The plant produces very large radishes. It is a variety of daikon radish bred primarily as a cover crop. The radishes have an extensive root mass that aerates the soil and pulls nitrogen and other nutrients back to the soil surface for ready use for next season's crop. This strain of daikon is referred to as a biodrill or tillage radish. Tillage radishes are specifically bred to form huge, soil-busting roots, with a taproot that can reach deep into the soil to reclaim nitrogen. The roots also leave large holes in the ground, allowing water infiltration and soil aeration. If planted in late summer, the radishes are not harvested or turned under but left to die off in the winter and decay, contributing to a nitrogen store for spring planting. Excellent soil builder, cover crops, and livestock and wildlife feed. Excellent choice for home gardens, market growers, and open field production. A variety from the USA.

Radish 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 in early spring or in the fall. Plant successive plantings every few weeks to have a steady supply of radishes. Plant 3 - 4 weeks before the last frost in spring, and 6 weeks before the 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 mulch and grass clippings, or straw, around the base of the plant.

Water Requirements:

Keep the soil uniformly moist and from drying out.

Fertilizer Requirements:

Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Apply Miracle-Gro Liquid Fertilizer periodically.

Harvest Tips:

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