Radish 'Carmen'

1000 seeds

Sow seeds directly in well-draining, fertile soil in early spring or late summer. Plant seeds about 1/2 inch deep, spacing them 1 inch apart in rows. Radishes prefer cool temperatures (55°F - 75°F/13°C - 24°C) and full sun to partial shade. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged to ensure quick, even growth. Thin seedlings to 2-3 inches apart for proper root development. Fertilize with compost or a balanced fertilizer for optimal growth. Radish 'Carmen' matures quickly, typically 25-30 days after sowing. Harvest when the roots are 1-2 inches in diameter and have a smooth, firm texture. Regular harvesting encourages continuous growth.
