Light, sandy soil, rich in organie matter is essential 
to produce crisp and tender radishes. For early crop 
sow the seed as soon as the ground can be worked, in 
drills 6 to 10 inches apart, covering the seed half an 
inch deep. When the plants are well started, thin out 
to one inch apart in the drills. Frequent watering in 
dry weather is very beneficial as high quality is largely 
dependent upon rapid growth. For a continuous supply, 
successive plantings should be made at intervals of 10 
days to two weeks, selecting varieties best suited for the 
season.
