Radishes are one the easiest and quickest of all crops to grow, which makes them especially good for children to grow. However, the wide range of varieties available also make this a good vegetable for the more mature gardener to grow too.

Step 1: Sowing Seeds

Prepare ground by digging in Gro-Sure Farmyard Manure during the autumn. Sow seeds from early spring in the open soil. Sow in shallow drills and water the soil along the row if it is dry at the time of sowing.

Pests and Diseases

Slugs enjoy raddishes so protect your plants with Eraza Slug and Snail Killer.

Harvesting Radishes

Harvest when they are big enough to eat. Discard any that are too large or old because these will be too woody as well as too hot to eat.
