When to plant Radish Seeds

Radish seeds can be sown from early spring to late summer, making them a great choice for continuous harvesting. Sow outdoors from March to September, depending on the variety and the weather. Radishes are cool-season crops, so avoid sowing in the hottest months to prevent them from bolting.

How to Plant Radish Seeds

Sow radish seeds 1-2 cm deep in rows spaced 15-20 cm apart. Space seeds about 2-3 cm apart in each row. Radishes prefer well-drained, fertile soil and a sunny location, though they can tolerate partial shade. Keep the soil moist to ensure crisp, tender roots. Thin seedlings once they emerge to ensure enough space for proper growth.

How long do Radish Seeds take to grow?

Radishes are fast-growing crops, with most varieties ready to harvest in 4-6 weeks from sowing. Baby radishes can be harvested as soon as they reach the desired size, while larger varieties may take a little longer.

Why should I plant Radish Seeds?

Radishes are easy to grow, quick to mature, and perfect for adding a spicy crunch to salads, sandwiches, and stir-fries. They are rich in vitamins and minerals and provide a nutritious, low-calorie snack. Growing your own radishes ensures the freshest produce and eliminates the need for pesticides.

Where can I plant Radish Seeds?

Radishes grow best in garden beds, raised beds, and containers. They thrive in well-drained, loose soil and benefit from full sunlight. They can be intercropped with slower-growing vegetables, as they mature quickly.
