Planting Instructions: Radishes are generally very easy to grow. They are best when sown in spring or late summer but with care can be planted from February to September. Plant small amounts, 5 to 7 days apart for a steady supply.

Plant seeds directly outdoors as soon as soil can be worked. Plant ½ inch deep, ½ inch apart in rows at least 8 inches apart. Firm soil and keep moist until seedlings appear. Radishes have shallow root systems so do keep them watered.

Harvest as soon as roots reach desired size.

★★★★★ Purple Radish
By Mike Anderson on September 23, 2014

Excellent radish that we enjoyed in the spring. We recently planted a small batch for this fall. An interesting recipe is to half or quarter them and saut them in a skillet of olive oil till tender. Excellent as a side dish or over a lettuce salad.
