General Cultivation Tips for Radishes
Due to their rapid growth and small size, the sowing phase is quite delicate. Use a variety adapted to the season of sowing. Most varieties are advisable for sowings in autumn and spring. For winter sowings, choose varieties suitable for short days, and for summer sowings, opt for late varieties with compact roots. The texture of the plot should be light or loose and with good fertility. Choose the right spot in the plot based on the time of year. In winter, sowings should be done under plastic or protected. In spring and autumn, sowings can be made anywhere, but it is recommended to sow in shaded and cool areas in summer. Sow seed by seed in lines. This may be more cumbersome than broadcasting sowing, but it avoids uneven germination with the risk of losing plants that do not form properly, as the radish, despite its small size, needs a certain surface area for good development. Bury the seeds at a correct depth, as this influences the final shape. Round varieties should be buried superficially (0.5 - 1 cm max) and medium-long varieties at 2-3 cm. Water frequently, as they grow quickly and need constant moisture without waterlogging. The use of sprinklers is very suitable. If periods of drought occur, it will affect root development and quality. Harvest at the right time; it is better to collect them before they are fully developed than afterwards, as the quality will be affected.
