Planting & Care
Sow Royal Purple 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 1/2 inch deep and keep the soil evenly moist until germination. Thin seedlings to stand 1-2 inches apart to allow roots to develop properly. Radishes grow quickly and benefit from consistent watering to prevent bolting and ensure tender roots.
Harvest radishes when roots reach the desired size, typically 25-30 days after sowing. For a continuous supply, sow small batches every 2-3 weeks during cool weather. Avoid leaving mature radishes in the ground too long, as they may become pithy. With minimal care, you'll enjoy a bountiful harvest of colorful, homegrown radishes.
