Agricultural technology.
Daikon is an unpretentious plant and can grow on different types of soil, but it gives the highest yield on light, fertile soils. Soil preparation for the crop should begin in early spring, adding humus and mineral fertilizers. The best time for sowing is early July.
Seeds are sown in small holes on the beds to a depth of 2-3 cm, 2-3 pieces per hole with a distance of 50 cm between rows, and 25 cm between plants in a row.
After the emergence of seedlings and the formation of 2-3 true leaves, the plants are thinned out, removing weak seedlings.
Root crops should be harvested in dry weather and stored in boxes with sand.
1 gram = 60-100 seeds.

* Obtaining your own seeds.
To obtain seeds, daikon is sown in the first ten days of April (for food purposes, sowing is carried out in mid-July). Seeds are sown in a nest of 2 pieces at a depth of 3-5 cm. Seedlings appear on the 5th-7th day.
When seedlings with 1-2 true leaves appear, the crops are thinned out, leaving one most developed plant in the nest.
Plant care consists of 2-3 loosenings, watering, if necessary - fertilizing in the phase of 1-2 true leaves (after thinning) and fighting cruciferous flea beetles, which must be started as soon as the cotyledon leaves appear.
Seeds ripen at the end of September. Fruits with seeds are harvested selectively as they ripen.
