North of about Bunderburg, raddish is a winter crop. If you try grow raddish here in summer it just gets scorched off the face of the earth. You can eat the leaves, I process them with rocket and mustard leaves to use in lam curries.
I planted radishes for the first time this year. it said on the bag 30 days. well after 30 days it was about 3 inches tall and i thought yeah right. I pulled them up and nothing but roots. what do you guys think went wrong.. the soil was about half and half jpotting mix and sand.
I learned something about radishes today. I should have given less nitrogen I guess. That and the excess heat caused mine to bolt. Bummer. Thanks for the info. Nice raised beds you have. :)
With these and the carrots you mentioned not using too much manure.
I live in Florida and our "soil" is sand and a bit of clay. I have a compost pile of mostly horse manure (pellet fed) and organic produce from a health store and hay. What is the best soil for plants like carrots? I have a bunch of Dragon Purple Carrot seedlings in very rich soil and now I'm concerned it's too rich. Should I just add sand?
I love your vids! Any chance you could you make one on fertilizer "teas"? Thanks!
I used to live in FL and grow the purple dragon carrots in the ground. I used home made compost and supplemented with fertilizer teas every couple of weeks and they turned out great. Hope this helps. ~Jeri
did not know you could transplant radish. did start the seedlings yourself?

if they come up bent or over twisted it could be too rich or rocky, fertiliser teas are a good feed option for root veg, i'll do a few soon!

is radish related to arugula?
Tidnull 3 years ago
I don't think so.
HazmatB 3 years ago
yes!
arugula= eruca sativa= brassica/mustard family
radish= Raphanus sativus = brassica/mustard family
they ara called crucifers because of the flower shape.
many plants like cress, mizuna or tatsoi and rutabaga are all from the brassica family.

oh.. i was wondering because to me the leaves of radish look exactly like arugula.
