Radishes are a diverse group of vegetables with various varieties, and new cultivars may have been introduced since then.
However, I can provide you with general guidance on how to grow radishes, and you can apply these principles to the specific variety you have:
**1. Planting Time:**
- Radishes are a cool-season crop. They can be grown in the spring or fall when temperatures are cooler. In warmer climates, you may also be able to grow them in winter.
**2. Soil Preparation:**
- Choose well-draining soil rich in organic matter. Radishes prefer loose, sandy soil. Ensure the soil is free from rocks and clumps to allow the roots to develop properly.
**3. Sowing Seeds:**
- Sow radish seeds directly into the garden bed. Plant the seeds about half an inch deep and one inch apart in rows. Space rows about 6-12 inches apart, depending on the variety.
**4. Sunlight:**
- Radishes prefer full sun but can tolerate partial shade.
**5. Watering:**
- Keep the soil consistently moist. Water regularly to ensure the soil stays evenly moist, but be cautious not to overwater, as this can lead to issues like root rot.
**6. Thinning:**
- Once the radish seedlings have emerged, thin them to ensure proper spacing. This helps prevent overcrowding and allows the radishes to develop well-formed roots.
**7. Fertilizing:**
- Radishes are not heavy feeders. If your soil is well-amended, you may not need much additional fertilizer. A balanced, all-purpose fertilizer can be applied at planting time.
**8. Harvesting:**
- Radishes are typically ready to harvest in 20-30 days, depending on the variety. Harvest them when they reach a suitable size, usually around 1-2 inches in diameter.
**9. Succession Planting:**
- Consider planting radishes in succession every 2-3 weeks for a continuous harvest.
**10. Companion Planting:**
- Radishes can be used as companion plants to deter certain pests. They are often planted with other vegetables like carrots.
Please refer to the specific guidelines on the seed packet for your "Rex" radish variety, as there may be unique considerations for that particular cultivar. If there have been developments or new introductions since my last update, checking with local nurseries or agricultural extension services for the most recent information on radish varieties would be advisable.
