Why Easy Wins?
New to growing from seed? Easy Wins is a great place to start. Each variety has been chosen to make growing your own flowers and vegetables simpler, with reliable varieties and clear, straightforward instructions to guide you from sowing to picking or flowering.
Some varieties have an extra helping hand too, such as pre-spaced seed tape, compact plants, disease resistance or other useful growing traits. So you can spend less time worrying about getting everything right and more time enjoying what you've grown.
How Do I Sow My Seeds?
Sow seeds thinly in shallow, pre-watered rows and lightly cover them with a small amount of soil. Keep the soil consistently moist, as dry conditions can reduce germination and affect seedling growth.
For a continuous harvest throughout the summer, make small sowings every three weeks. This simple succession-sowing method will help ensure a steady supply of fresh, crisp radishes ready for harvesting.
Where Should I Grow Them?
French Breakfast Radish grows best in a sunny position with fertile, well-drained soil. Thanks to its compact size and quick-growing nature, it's a versatile crop that can be grown in a variety of spaces.
Choose a spot where the soil can be kept consistently moist, as this helps produce crisp, well-shaped roots. For the best results, sow little and often throughout the season to enjoy a continuous supply of fresh radishes.
How Do I Look After Them?
Keep the soil consistently moist throughout the growing season, especially during dry weather, to encourage healthy growth and crisp, flavourful roots.
For a continuous supply of radishes, make small sowings every three weeks throughout the summer. This succession sowing method will provide regular harvests over a longer period.
Harvest roots while they are still small and young for the best flavour and texture. Pick regularly to prevent the roots from becoming woody, ensuring a steady supply of crisp, mild radishes for salads and summer dishes.
When Can I Harvest?
You can look forward to harvesting French Breakfast Radishes from April to October, depending on when the seeds are sown.
Ready in as little as 4-6 weeks after sowing, this quick-growing variety produces vibrant scarlet roots with distinctive white tips and a deliciously mild flavour.
Pick roots while they are still small and young for the best flavour and texture. Harvest regularly to prevent the roots from becoming woody, ensuring a continuous supply of crisp, fresh radishes for salads, sandwiches and summer dishes throughout the season.
