RADISH “2° 
HOW TO GROW RADISHES. For good, tender, 
well-shaped Radishes, you must have good, rich, deep, 
well-prepared soil. They cannot do well in hard 
“clayey” soil. Sow the seed early and make other 
sowings every two weeks. This gives you fresh tender 
Radishes all season. If too large a sowing is made at 
one time, they may get tough or pithy before all can be 
used. Sow the seed in rows rather than broadcasting it, 
for when sown in rows they may be kept clean of weeds. 
Rows may be made 4 or 6 or 12 inches apart, depending 
on the quantity you are growing. Sow seed thin enough 
so they do not need to be thinned out. Sow seed of 
winter Radishes in July and August; then take them up 
before freezing and store in pits or cover with sand in 
the cellar, and they will keep fine all winter. One ounce 
will sow a row 100 feet long; 10 pounds to the acre.
