Planting Radishes from Seed

Brian shows you how to sow the fastest growing vegetable crop, the radish.

I felt the same way about radishes; the first time I ate one was the last time I ate one! It was peppery and bitter but recently I found a recipe for keto potato salad using radishes cut into quarters then roasted and it was amazing! Now I want to grow them

I’ve been unsuccessful but I am trying them in containers right now. I’m on two plus weeks with mine. At first they were growing slow because of a couple cold spells but I think with the 50-70 temps they have been growing. Only a couple days ago I went around with some seeds and planted them randomly among my peas and herbs even around some flowers lol.

I don't like radishes either, but I bought some seeds today and am going to try growing them for the bees! Apparently bees love the flowers....and then the seed pods are edible, maybe they taste better 😄

you can boil them like potatoes or put them in a stew

By watching your video it confirms that I really need to sow my radish seeds a bit far from each other, also not sow too much at once, and make sure to give them evenly moisture....I'm like you didn't really care for them but they look so pretty in salads and also they are so healthy, will have to get some seeds at OSH especially this week their price reduction goes 50% off, oh will have to try to roast them as well, yum!!!
Thank you for another great video and all the tips on how to grow radishes!

I've decided to try growing radishes because I still have half a row empty in my garden and It's too late to plant many other things. I'm also going to try pickling them!

I think I already posted on a different vid... I accidentally fertilized my first session of radish with blood meal! LOL
BRIAN!! DUDE!! You have GOT to try the 'Hailstone" from MIGardner! Very, very mild!
Caution about the watermelon radish... They get HUGE!! 4" in diameter! Space accordingly.
👍🏻👍🏻

If you hate radishes, try roasting them with some Italian seasoning! I’m Keto & I toss mine in Avocado oil, then sprinkle with salt, pepper & Italian seasoning. YUM!

My mom always said to put radishes and kale in a pan with lots of butter so they slide into the garbage easily.

Turnips can be used in place of potatoes as well. They make amazing mashed “potatoes”. 😉

I broke the first rule !🤣 whole pkg in a huge pot, have no idea what I’m doing. Roasting !wow!

Would it be a problem to grow them in soil fertilized with manure compost? I've read the manure can mess up carrots but not sure about radishes.

Funny, but sad story, our 18-month-old son, Hunter, used to love to climb up onto a chair to climb onto the dinner table to get to the bowl of fruit my wife had on the table. He'd take a bite out of an apple and a pear or two, then eat an ENTIRE radish!!! The sad part is, we have just the memories of his antics because sadly he passed away a month later during his nap (SUDC). But is that not the strangest thing, a toddler LIKING the taste of a radish???

[suewatters]

I love raw radishes. With plenty of salt on them I can eat 25 in just a few days. I usually eat cherry Bella radishes.

Hi Brian, I love your videos. I know you are very busy with the move but I would love an update on this video. Did you like the radishes? I planted them for the first time in a container 5 days ago and they are growing. Happy growing!
