How to Grow Red Meat Chinese Radishes
Make sure your soil is loose before planting by breaking it up with a gardening fork and mixing in sand if needed. Sow 1 seed a quarter inch deep, one inch apart in rows that are 6 to 12 inches apart. Thin seedlings to one every 4 inches once they have germinated. Water consistently to keep the soil moist and prevent roots from cracking. Fertilize as needed. Please note that these radishes should only be sown in late summer, not spring.
