Description

Radish French Breakfast 2 Organic

French Breakfast 2 Organic radishes thrive in well-drained soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0, benefitting from the addition of organic compost for enhanced fertility. Sow the seeds directly in the garden bed, placing them half an inch deep and one inch apart in rows spaced 12 inches apart. Provide consistent sunlight, ensuring at least 6-8 hours of direct exposure. Thinning seedlings to 2-3 inches apart promotes proper spacing. Mulch around the radishes to retain moisture and suppress weeds. For optimal growth, consider side-dressing with organic compost or a balanced fertilizer. Monitor for pests such as flea beetles and employ organic pest control methods if needed. Harvest the radishes when they reach 1-2 inches in diameter, typically in 22-28 days, and store them in the refrigerator, removing the tops to prevent moisture loss. To extend the harvest, plant radishes successively every 7-10 days. This straightforward approach ensures a delightful yield of French Breakfast 2 Organic radishes.
