CULTURE.—Select light, sandy soil, spade deeply and manure 
well. For early crop, sow in hotbeds in February or March; 
for main crop, sow at intervals from early spring until last of 
September in deep, rich soil. Broadcast sowing is allowable, 
but drilling is more professional; however, radishes do well by 
either method. Thin when they crowd, or the crop will be 
imperfect. They may be drawn after a few weeks’ growth.
