Burpee’s Choice Radishes 
If your garden includes some of each of the three different classes of Radishes—Spring, Summer, and Winter Radishes— 
it will easily keep you supplied with this refreshing vegetable practically all year around. All classes are easy to grow. Plant 
as early in the spring as the ground can be worked, and make succession plantings every 10 days. Where the summers are 
hot sow until the middle of May, then stop, but make three more sowings during August. Sow the seed thinly in shallow 
drilis and cover with about one-quarter inch of fine soil. The quality of Radishes depends considerably upon thorough soil 
preparation, good fertility, and ample moisture. One ounce is sufficient for 100 feet of drill; 8 to 10 pounds of seed are 
needed to sow one acre planted in drills.
