SOWING: Seed directly into vegetable garden anytime soil is workable from March to September. Cover seeds with 1/4 inch light soil, spacing seeds 1 to 1 1/2 inches apart.
THINNING & SPACING: Once seedlings are established then to 1 1/1 to 2 inches apart. Leave 6 to 12 inches between rows or plant 2 inches apart in all directions in wide rows.
GERMINATION: Approximately 1 week. Keep soil moderately moist during germination.
Ed’s Special Advice: Treat soil with safe insecticide to protect from root insects, or sow seed where radishes or cabbage had not been grown the previous year. Protect seed bed from new infestation with cheese cloth or agricultural netting strung above plants. Plant in a mostly sunny spot in a moderately rich soil kept fairly well watered. For continual harvest, plant radishes every 2 or 3 weeks during the cooler parts of the growing season.
