Hardie’s Crisp Radishes 
SELECTED VARIETIES FOR HOME AND MARKET 
CULTURE—The soil for radishes should be light, rich and well pulverized, as their mild 
and crisp qualities depend much on their rapid growth. For very early use, sow in mild hotbeds 
in January, and in open ground as soon as the ground can be worked; for succession sow at 
intervals of ten or twelve days; they also do well sown in the fall.
