RADISH 
One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill 

For early use select only forcing varieties and sow in hotbeds or 
under glass any time from January until March. Begin sowing out- 
doors as soon as the soil is in working condition, usually early in 
April, selecting, if possible, a light, sandy loam. Although seed of 
the monthly Radishes may be sown broadcast from April until 
September, the summer and winter sorts should be sown in drills 12 
to 18 inches apart, but not before May 15, as earlier sowings will 
most likely run to seed. For winter, sow from July 15 to August 15 
in drills 18 inches apart, later thinning out to 6 inches apart.
