Autumn Radish Watermelon

£3.95

This surprising cool weather heirloom radish is the reverse of what you’d expect from our stalwart veg patch crop. With white skin, tinged with green at the top, the interior flesh is entirely pinky red – the colour of watermelon flesh. It is a particularly cold hardy variety perfect for overwintering. Not suitable for spring sowing.

Average 200 seeds.

How to grow this seed

Additional Information

Growing Information

Sowing info

Can be multisown in module trays or sown direct outdoors from July to the first half of September in a sunny position. These are cool weather loving radishes so in very hot periods, delay sowing until the weather cools down a bit. Germination will usually take 7 to 10 days. When sowing direct plant seed at a depth of 3cm in shallow drills. Protect young seedlings from birds.

Growing info

As roots swell, harvest the largest roots to allow more room for others to grow larger. Succession sowing every 2-4 weeks will ensure a continual supply.
