Growing Information
SCIENTIFIC NAME: Raphanus sativus var. longipinnatus
CULTURE: Daikons and Korean radishes require friable, well drained soils with a pH range of 5.8-6.8. Work soil deeply, in raised beds if possible, for straight roots and ease of harvest. Sow 10 seeds/30cm, thinning to 10-12cm apart, rows 35cm apart. Note planting seasons to reduce bolting.

- 6-row seeder (C-M-N); Hole Size C, Middle pulleys, brush setting N

INSECT PESTS: Use floating row covers at time of planting to control cabbage root maggots.
