Maulers Best Radishes 



.. Culture: Summer Radishes are adapted for sowing early in 



the Spring to mature during the Summer; or they may be 



planted later to be ready for the table any time before frost. 



For a continuous supply sow every two weeks until 



September. Winter Radisiies require cool weather at 



the end of their growing season, and for that reason 



~»^_^ they are planted during the Summer. Sow the seed 



'^ 1/2 inch deep in rows spaced 15 to 24 inches apart 



any time during June, July, or early August. Thin the 



seedlings to stand 4 to 6 inches apart. Cultivate the 



crop frequently to preserve soil moisture and keep 



down the weeds. One packet of either Summer or 



Winter Radishes will sow 20 feet of row; 1 oz. for 



100 feet; 8 to 10 lbs. per acre.
