Maulers Crisp 

 Radishes 



Culture: The seed of Spring and Summer 

 Radishes may be sown as early in the spring as 

 the soil can be worked. Successional sowings may 

 be made every 10 days until September, except 

 where summers are hot in which sections sowings 

 should be stopped from the middle of May until the first of 

 August. Sow seed thinly in shallow drills 12 to 18 in. apart, 

 cover with % in. of soil; thin seedlings to stand 1 to 2 in. apart 

 in the row. \yinter Radishes require cool weather at the end 

 of their growing season, and for that reason, seeds are sown from 

 the middle of June to the middle of August in rows IS to 24 in. 

 apart; cover seed >-2 in. deep. Thin the seedlings to stand 4 to 

 6 in. apart in the row. A packet will sow about 20 ft. of row; 

 1 oz. abou^ 100 ft.; 8 to 10 lbs. per acre. With little care, any- 

 one can grow Radishes. They are at their best, however, in finely 

 and deeply prepared soil and when growth is quick and steady.
