Every gardener tries to allocate at least a small patch of land for radishes, so that at the end of spring they can taste the juicy and aromatic fruits.
Some summer residents plant the crop under film, others grow it in a greenhouse or sow it directly into open ground.
Experienced gardeners know that 90% of success is the right variety. Not all seeds are suitable for early planting. Therefore, you should pay attention to the following varieties:
- "French Breakfast";
- "Ruby";
- "Mila";
- "Heat".
The seeds sprout quickly, and the root crops have the most tender flesh. During sowing, it is necessary to take into account a number of nuances so that the radish will definitely grow by the end of spring.
Before planting, make shallow furrows that are watered with warm water. The distance between them is at least 20 cm.
It should be noted that a warm spring can provoke the appearance of the cruciferous flea beetle. It is easy to get rid of the pest at an early stage. You need to sprinkle the bed with a mixture of ash and mustard (1:1).
