It is very difficult to correct a miscalculation, so it is better not to make a mistake at the very beginning.
Growing radishes is not difficult. Experienced gardeners manage to collect 2-3 harvests per season.
But sometimes even experienced gardeners make mistakes, not to mention beginners. It is as easy to ruin a radish harvest as it is to grow it.
There are two main mistakes that can be made at the very start. Although radishes are unpretentious in many ways, they put forward their own requirements.
Watering
It is important to water the root crop abundantly. If there is not enough moisture, the vegetable grows flabby and bitter. Such a harvest is not suitable for food, the only thing left to do is feed it to animals or throw it away.
Nutrition
Potassium is responsible for the quality of fruits. The macronutrient is necessary for the formation of the harvest. With a lack of potassium, the fruits are not as tasty as they could be in optimal conditions.
When planting, be sure to add ash. This free fertilizer contains potassium in sufficient quantities for radishes.
