The remaining 50% is agricultural technology. This is how to proceed.

First, fill the box (another deep container will do) with soil and water it.

An important condition: the container for growing radishes must be “equipped” with drainage.

Now place the radish seeds into the furrows to a depth of 1 cm, leaving a free space of 10 cm between them (the furrows). The gap between the seeds should be 3 cm.

Cover the seeds with soil and water again.

All that remains is to cover the containers with film and wait for the shoots to appear, after which the cover must be removed and the radishes must be moved under phytolamps.
