Mini Red
Mini Red Daikon radish seeds are also known as Shunkyo. The red radish of northern Chinese cuisine is both hot and sweet in flavour. It has bright red skin over tender, crisp, white flesh. The tops are delicious and spicy. This daikon is fast growing and slow to bolt, so it can be planted for spring or fall production. So and grow as you would turnips, thinning them to 15-20cm (6-8") apart. Hybrid vigour brings uniformity and speedy growth to this lovely radish variety. For home gardeners on the coast, plan on sowing short rows three or four times in March and April, and again in September and October. This will result in a steady harvest, and they won't all be ready to pick at once.

Rido Red
These fast growing, uniform watermelon radishes have a lovely cream exterior over a bright fuchsia centre. The core starts as a simple dot of colour, but expands toward the outside as the root develops. The resulting visual appeal makes them extremely eye catching for the market table - or the dinner table. Rido Red radish can be grown at nearly any time of year, but the faster they grow the better the flavour. We were impressed in our summer seed trials by the overall flavour and character of this radish. It mingles sweet and savoury with a touch of mustard-like heat.

How to grow
Timing: Radishes can be grown all season, but they're easiest when sown around the last frost date and again in the late summer for fall and winter harvests. Planting in warm soil may interfere with root formation.
Seeding: Sow short rows frequently. Sow radish seeds 5mm (1/4") deep, with 25 seeds per 30cm (12") row. In rows spaced 30-45cm (12-18") apart. Thin to 2-5cm (1-2") apart.
Growing: Radishes do not need highly fertile soil, but will grow well in soil that was amended with lime the previous year. The addition of compost will lighten heavy soil, allowing the roots to expand well. Use floating row cover to protect from insect damage.
Usual seed life: 4 years
