Radishes are one of the easiest vegetables to grow. They do best when grown durng cool weather with plenty of moisture. Under these conditions they grow rapidly and produce crisp, tender roots. Many varieties are available that mature about 25 days from seeding. Make several small plantings at 1- to 2-week intervals to ensure a continuous harvest. Plant radishes about 1/2 inch deep. After emergence, thin the plants to approximately 1 inch apart. If radishes are allowed to become overly mature, especially during high temperatures, a hot, bitter flavor often occurs. |
