HOW TO GROW RADISH
Direct sow March to August every 2-3 weeks to have a continuous supply. Thin to 1” when plants are 2” tall. For fall harvest, transplant 5 weeks before first frost, without additional protection. In a hoophouse, you can plant 2-3 weeks later. Radishes grow best if sown in spring or later summer when days are shorter. The small, fast-maturing spring radishes, also called summer radishes, take about 60 days to size up and only remain edible for 10 days to 2 weeks when stored at 34˚F. For fall harvest, direct sow 5 weeks before first frost. The larger, slower growing biennial winter radishes are used as a winter storage vegetable that can remain edible for 4 to 6 months in storage. Soil pH 6.5-7.0. Hardiness zones 3. Annual.

Feral Farm
Certified Organic by CCOF
Seed grower since 2015
I started growing seed commercially as an apprentice at the Organic Farm School in the Puget Sound in Washington. I already loved growing vegetables, but taking a plant all the way through its life cycle felt like a special kind of honor, and I quickly saw the value in sustaining organic, important, and rare plant varieties and participating in sustainable food systems in this way. I moved to Oregon in 2015 and have been growing my organic seed farming business over the last four seasons by renting land from existing farms and slowly taking on higher volumes and more varieties. I’m currently growing 1.6 acres of certified organic seed crops and heirloom garlic.
