RADISHES 
One ounce for 100-foot row. 
Radishes can be planted very early—as soon as the ground can be worked and no danger of frost. The 
rows should be from 8 inches to a foot apart, the furrows for the seeds about half an inch deep; and the 
seeds, when dropped into the furrow, about an inch apart. Press fine soil down over them to the depth of 
the furrow. As the plants grow, thin them out like beets. Radishes mature, depending on the kind, in from 
4 to 6 weeks; the turnip-shaped ones are the earlier.
