Plant seeds about 1\/2 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Thin seedlings to the recommended spacing to allow roots to develop properly. Radishes grow best in cool weather and may bolt in high heat; provide consistent moisture to prevent splitting and maintain mild flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor a continuous harvest, sow small batches every 2-3 weeks. Radishes are relatively low-maintenance but benefit from regular watering and weed control. Harvest when roots reach desired size, typically 1-2 inches in diameter, before they become woody or overly pungent.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e500 Long Scarlet Radish seeds for planting.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67795604275510,"sku":"FOLIA2-652","price":27.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0994\/4884\/8694\/files\/il_fullxfull.7146951989_scak.jpg?v=1792671896","url":"https:\/\/blakesflora.com\/products\/500-long-scarlet-radish-seeds-heirloom-red-root-radish-for-garden-planting","provider":"Blake's Flora \u0026 Soil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
