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 in 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. One ounce will plant 
100 ft. of row.
