Planting & Care
Sow German Giant radish seeds directly in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, or in late summer for a fall crop. Plant seeds about ½ inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until germination, which typically occurs within 5–10 days. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow roots to develop properly.
Radishes grow best in loose, well-drained soil free of rocks and clumps. Water regularly to prevent the roots from becoming woody or splitting. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Harvest when roots reach the desired size, usually 30–50 days after sowing. For a continuous supply, sow small batches every 2–3 weeks.
