Planting Plant radishes in very early spring (March/April) as soon as you can dig up the soil. They love the cool weather. Plant the seed 1/4 to 1/2 inch deep. After the radishes have come up, then thin out so they are about 1/2 to 1 inch apart. Radishes grow super fast! From seedling to harvest is usually about days. Keep them watered and check them often. They will be ready to eat before you know it. Harvesting Pull the radish when the root is less than one inch in diameter. Do not leave ready-to-eat radishes in the ground too long or else they will become hot to the taste and hard.

Facts: Facts: Radishes are Available: Summertime How Does a Radish Grow: They grow underground as a root vegetable. Once planted, they grow quickly.
