RADISH GERMAN GIANT
Now we are talking about big radishes! German Giant can grow as big as a tennis ball. The German Giant Radish has scarlet skin with a crisp white interior. They can be harvested anywhere from marble to their extra large size, and they won't get woody or spongy. Has a mild flavour.
Radishes grow best in full sun and light, sandy loams with ph 6.5–7.0.
German Giant radishes grow rapidly in the warmer months, germinating in 3–7 days, and reaching maturity in three to four weeks. Harvesting periods can be extended through repeated plantings, spaced a week or two apart.
As with other root crops, tilling the soil helps the roots grow. However, radishes are used in no-till farming to help reverse compaction.
Most soil types will work, though sandy loams are particularly good for winter and spring crops, while soils that form a hard crust can impair growth.
