Sowing and Growing Guide

French Breakfast Radish

Indoor Sowing

  • Start seeds indoors 4-6 weeks before the last expected frost date.
  • Fill seed trays with seed starting mix and sow seeds 1/2 inch deep, 1 inch apart.
  • Keep the soil moist and at a consistent temperature of 50-65°F.
  • Seedlings should emerge in 5-7 days.
  • Once seedlings have developed their first true leaves, thin them to 2-3 inches apart.
  • Transplant seedlings outdoors when they are 3-4 weeks old and the soil has warmed to at least 40°F.

Outdoor Sowing

  • Sow seeds directly into the garden 2-4 weeks before the last expected frost date.
  • Choose a sunny location with loose, well-draining soil that has been amended with compost.
  • Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep and 1-2 inches apart in rows spaced 6-8 inches apart.
  • Keep the soil moist and weed-free.
  • Thin seedlings when they are 1-2 inches tall, leaving 2-3 inches between plants.

Growing

  • French Breakfast 2 radishes prefer well-draining soil that is consistently moist.
  • Water regularly to keep soil evenly moist, especially during dry spells.
  • Harvest radishes when they are young and tender, typically 3-4 weeks after sowing.
  • Radishes can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week after harvesting.
