EASY TO GROW — RADISHES AND SQUASH 
Top Quality Radish Seed 
(Rabanos) 
To have tender and crisp Radishes, they must be grown very quickly and in order to do 
this they should be planted in very rich soil and have plenty of water, commencing in the 
spring and sowing at intervals of about a week or ten days. By doing this you will have nice 
fresh Radishes all the time. For fall and winter use you should start sowing seed in August 
and September using the same methods as for spring planting. One ounce of seed will sow 
about 40 feet of drill and about 5 or 6 pounds an acre.
