Successfully sowing large round winter black radish
Sowing: light from June to August, broadcast in rows spaced 25 cm apart in loose, rich, fresh soil in a sunny location, then thin out to about 1 cm in the rows. Cover with 1 cm of potting soil. Pack lightly. Thin out to 12/15 cm in the row.
Remove weeds as soon as they appear. Water frequently to prevent the radishes from becoming too prickly or overgrown.
Harvesting radishes
Harvesting generally takes place 3 months after sowing, from October to December.
Use the tops to make radish top soup.
