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.
Requires loose fertile soil in a well drained location in the garden. Apply much and grass clippings, or straw around base of plant.
Keep soil uniformly moist and from drying out.
Use RootBlast, Vegetable Alive, and Slow Release Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Periodically apply Miracle Gro.
Dig or pull roots when they are mature. If left in ground too long, they will crack and taste bitter.
