RADISH

Other Name: Raphanus sativus

Period/Seasonal Colour: Red, pink, white, gray-black, or yellow radishe.

Height: 6 inches to 18 inches.

Where To Plant: Radishes need sun. If they are planted in too much shade—or even where neighboring vegetable plants shade them—they put all their energy into producing larger leaves.

When To Plant: Radishes can be planted in both the spring and the fall, but growing should be suspended in the warmer months.

How To Plant: Fill the plant pot with soil. Make some holes in the soil about 1cm deep. Drop a seed into each one and cover it with soil. Water them a little and leave the pot in a warm place.
