Planting & Care

Sow French Breakfast 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 stand 1–2 inches apart to allow roots to develop properly.

Radishes thrive in loose, well-drained soil and benefit from regular watering, especially during dry spells. Avoid overcrowding and keep the area weed-free. Harvest when roots reach 1–2 inches in length, usually 25–30 days after sowing. For a continuous supply, sow small batches every 2–3 weeks.
