White radish "Blanka".
An early variety of radish, intended for spring and autumn cultivation under film shelters and in open ground.
Root crops are round, brilliant white with white juicy pulp and a pleasant taste. The variety is resistant to bolting and cracking.

When can you sow radishes in the spring?
Radishes can be sown in the spring as soon as the soil is ripe. You can sow with an interval of 15-20 days until May 25. Later sowing leads to the rapid formation of a peduncle. If the radish is sown later, then it must be covered for 2-3 weeks from 6 pm to 8 am with a material that does not transmit light, so that the light does not penetrate not only from above but also from the sides.
When can you re-sow greens and radishes?
If the first sowing date falls at the beginning of May, and sometimes at the end of April, then re-sowing should begin no earlier than mid-late July. This is especially true of radish, as it reacts sharply to the length of daylight hours. It is better to start sowing at the end of July. Radish roots from sowing in August are the best.
Dill, purslane, arugula, watercress and lettuce can be sown in the summer from mid-July.
Why do radishes bloom without forming roots?
Radish is a long-day plant. With a day length of more than 14 hours, flower stalks are quickly formed in plants, and with a day length of fewer than 12 hours, flower stalks form much longer and root crops retain marketability longer. Stemming is enhanced if the crops are thickened and a lack of moisture. Radishes sown too early can also quickly form a peduncle if there were drops to -3-5 ° C during the growth period. With too late sowing, after May 25, radish also quickly forms flower stalks without the formation of a root crop.
When should you thin out radishes?
Radishes are thinned out when the first true leaf appears, leaving 4-5 cm between plants in early-ripening varieties and 6-7 cm in mid-season ones.
How often should radishes be watered?
If the weather is dry, then the radish should be watered every day. If moderate, then every 2-3 days. On hot days, radishes are best watered in the evening, and after watering, loosen the soil.
