Radish. 
Cultivation. — A free open soil, enriched by real unctuous manures, best suits the Badish, and if a little bottom-heat can 
be insured in the Spring, so much the better the produce. To this end it is well to place soil upon any manure heap undergoing 
fermentation, and sow thereon. Successional sowings should be made constantly onward, commencing about the midillo of 
February until the last week in September. Tho best Spring crops, it were scarcely necessary to remark, are produced under 
glass. If grown out of doors, however, both those for early Spring supply and the last sowings should liavo a warm, sunny 
site chosen for them, and a light protection of straw; this will ward off excessive cold and aid them materially, if placed over 
thorn during cold, frosty nights, removing it during the day, &c. The China Bose and Black Spanish varieties should only bo 
sown during July and August, and for Winter salads, for which purpose they are esteemed. Haplianus caudatus is an edible- 
podded variety only, the pods of which are exceedingly long, and are eaten, when young and tender, in the same manner as 
the roots of other varieties, and for pickling are a decided improvement on ordinary radish-pods. It only succeeds well under 
pot culture, or treated as a tender annual.
