Home-Grown Radishes Crisp, Zestful 
NICHOLSON’S SELECTED RADISH SEED 
(RABANOS) 
To have tender and crisp Radishes, they must be grown very quickly and in order to do this they should be planted in very rich soil and 
have plenty of water, commencing early in the spring and sowing at intervals of about a week or ten days. By doing this you will have nice 
fresh Radishes all the time. For fall and winter use you should start sowing seed in August and September, using the same methods as for 
spring planting. One ounce of seed will sow about 40 feet of drill, and about 5 or 6 pounds an acre.
