Growing Instructions from Seeds

Sowing Season in Pakistan

September to November

Sowing time can vary slightly according to local temperature and weather conditions.

Sowing Method

Radish should preferably be directly sown in its final growing place because transplanting may disturb the developing roots.

1. Prepare loose, soft and well-drained soil.

2. Sow seeds approximately ½ inch deep.

3. Keep a distance of around 2–3 inches between plants.

4. Maintain approximately 8–12 inches between rows.

5. Water gently after sowing.

6. Keep the soil consistently moist but never waterlogged.

Germination

Seeds normally germinate within approximately 4–10 days, depending on temperature, moisture and seed conditions.

Soil Requirements

Use loose, fertile and stone-free soil so the roots can develop properly.

A suitable soil mixture may include:

• 50% garden soil

• 50% well-decomposed compost or vermicompost

Avoid fresh manure and excessive nitrogen, as these may produce too many leaves and poorly developed roots.

Sunlight

Provide approximately 5–6 hours of direct sunlight daily. In warmer weather, morning sunlight is preferable.

Watering

Keep the soil evenly moist throughout the growing period.

Irregular watering may cause radishes to become:

• Cracked

• Tough

• Pithy

• Excessively strong in flavour

Do not allow water to remain standing in the container.

Thinning

When seedlings develop their first true leaves, remove weak or overcrowded plants. Proper spacing is important for developing round, well-shaped roots.

Growing in Containers

Use a container or grow bag at least 8–10 inches deep with proper drainage holes.

A 12×12-inch grow bag can be used for growing multiple radish plants, provided they are spaced properly.

Fertilizer

Radishes generally require only moderate feeding when grown in fertile soil. Use well-decomposed compost or a light, balanced fertilizer if required.

Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer because it may encourage leafy growth instead of root development.

Harvesting

Radishes may become ready for harvesting approximately 25–45 days after sowing, depending on the colour, temperature, soil and growing conditions.

Harvest when the roots reach a suitable size. Do not leave mature radishes in the soil for too long, as they may become fibrous, hollow or overly pungent.
