The Old Farmer's Almanac Organic Radish Seeds (Heirloom Cherry Belle)

Radishes can tolerate frost, so sow directly outdoors 4-6 weeks before the last spring frost date; or in late summer for a fall harvest. Plant seeds 1/4 inch deep in a sunny spot, without shade, in rich, well tilled soil. If soil is clay-like mix in some sand and fertilizer. Distribute seeds evenly about 1 inch apart in rows 6-12 inches apart. Thin radishes 1 every 2-3 inches when plants are a week old. Consistent, even moisture is key with radishes. Keep the soil moist with frequent, shallow waterings.

Radishes are Fast Growers: When you think they're ready to harvest, pull one out to test it. The bulbs should be about 3/4 to 1 inch in diameter.

Harvest All Season Long: Plant new seed rows every 10 days or so -- while the weather is still cool -- for a continuous harvest during the growing season.

Wit & Wisdom: Practice three-year crop rotation. In other words, only plant radishes in the same spot every third year. Read The Old Farmer's Almanac Radish Growing Guide!
