Description
French Breakfast Organic Radish Seeds 4170. Heirloom Vegetable.
Approx. 350 seeds/pkt (90-100 seeds/gram)
An old heirloom variety grown from at least the late 1870’s that produces eye-pleasing scarlet red roots with white tips about 10-15 cm long. Roots are crisp and mild with a surprisingly sweet flavour. French Breakfast is a long time favourite summer radish that has stood the test of time. Moist soil is essential for germination, cooler temperatures may lengthen germination time.
How to Grow
Sow early in a sunny site as soon as the ground is workable in the spring. Sow seed every two weeks 12 mm deep and about 2.5 cm apart in rows about 30 cm apart. Keep soil evenly moist during germination and growth. Harvest in 3-4 weeks. Germination takes 3-5 days.
