Growing Tips, Tricks and FAQs
Growing Tips
The Early Scarlet Globe radish grows best in cool weather, typically in the spring when temperatures range from 50 F to 75 F. They can tolerate a light frost and prefer full sun, though some light shade can be beneficial in warmer climates to prevent the roots from becoming too pungent or woody.
When to Grow
Early Scarlet Globe radishes are cool-season crops, meaning they thrive in cooler temperatures. You can start sowing seeds outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring, about 4 weeks before the last frost date.
How to Sow and Plant
Direct sow Early Scarlet Globe radish seeds 1/4 inch deep and 2 inches apart. This variety matures quickly, typically within 22 days, making it ideal for planting in several small successions for a continuous harvest.
How to Grow
Ensure the radishes receive consistent moisture throughout their growing period, about 1 inch of water per week, to maintain soil moisture and encourage even root growth. Mulching can help retain moisture and suppress weeds. Radishes do not require heavy fertilization; however, avoid high nitrogen levels, as this can encourage leafy growth at the expense of root development. Use moderate potassium and phosphorus to promote healthy root formation.
How to Save
- Radishes are insect-pollinated, so you’ll need to isolate varieties by up to 1⁄2 mile or stagger plantings to avoid flowering at the same time.
- Staggering can be easy because of the radish’s quick maturity.
- Allow flower stalks to shoot up and seed pods to dry on the plant before picking pods and opening by hand to remove the seeds.
- Seeds will remain viable for up to 5 years when stored in an airtight container.
FAQ
How do I make sure that my radishes are not too spicy?
Consistent watering and harvesting at the right time (around 22 days after planting) will help keep the radishes mild and crisp.
Can Early Scarlet Globe radishes be grown in containers?
Yes, they are well-suited for container gardening. Ensure the container is at least 6 inches deep, has good drainage, and is filled with well-draining potting soil.
How do I prevent common pests for Early Scarlet Globe radishes?
Watch out for slugs, snails, and root maggots, which are common pests for radishes. Using row covers and maintaining a clean garden bed can help minimize pest issues.
