Planting Tips:
Crimson Giant Radishes grow best in cool weather and loose, fertile, well-drained soil. Sow seeds directly outdoors in early spring or late summer for a fall harvest. Keep soil consistently moist to encourage tender, crisp roots and prevent excessive spiciness. Thin seedlings early to allow enough room for the larger roots to develop properly. Harvest radishes promptly when they reach mature size for the best flavor and texture. For a continuous supply of fresh radishes, sow additional seeds every 1–2 weeks during cooler weather.
