SCARLET GLOBE RADISH 
RADISH 
(One Ounce Will Sow 100 Feet of Row) 
CULTURE: Radishes must have quick growth to be good, therefore, a rich well 
prepared sandy loam is the best soil. Sow the seed in rows as soon as the ground is 
warm and dry and thin out so the plants stand about two inches apart. For a constant 
supply, sow at intervals of 10 days. Many gardeners sow the seed broadcast. Winter 
varieties should be sown in August and thinned out to 5 or 6 inches apart.
