How to Grow Red Long Radish from Seeds

1. Best Season

Cool-season crop – grows best in spring (Feb–Apr) and autumn/winter (Sept–Dec) depending on your region.

Avoid peak summer heat, as radishes bolt (flower) quickly in hot weather.

2. Soil Preparation

Well-drained, loose, sandy loam or alluvial soil.

pH : 5.5–6.8 (slightly acidic to neutral).

Add compost or well-rotted manure before sowing.

Soil should be deep and friable so roots can grow long.

3. Sowing Seeds

Direct sow into the soil (radishes don’t transplant well).

Depth : 1–1.5 cm.

Spacing :  

Between seeds : 5–7 cm

Between rows : 20–25 cm

Cover lightly with soil and water gently.

4. Watering

Keep soil moist but not waterlogged.

Regular watering is important to prevent cracking or pungent taste.

5. Sunlight

Needs full sun (6+ hours/day).

Can tolerate partial shade, but roots may be smaller.

6. Growth Duration

Radish is a fast crop.

Red long radish matures in 45–60 days after sowing.

Harvest when roots are firm and about 15–20 cm long (before they become woody).

7. Care

Thin seedlings if overcrowded.

Keep the soil weed-free and loose by light hoeing.

Avoid heavy nitrogen fertilizers (they promote leaves, not roots).

8. Harvesting

Pull gently when roots are mature.

Don’t delay harvest—over-mature radishes become tough and pungent.
