Red Arrow Radish

by Organo Republic 12 Jan 2022


The winter Red Arrow radish cultivar has long and white roots and green tops with colorful veins. Radish sprouts are rich in nutrients! Shoot stems are pinkish-red and slightly darker than China Rose but lighter than Todo, with medium green cotyledons.
Although Red Arrow was specially developed for its characteristic red shoots when mature, it is a type of Japanese winter radish daikon, which means big root in Japanese.

 

How to grow Red Arrow Radish from seeds:

Sowing: Red Arrow is winter radishes; it should be planted about two months before the first expected fall frost. Plant the radish deep directly into fertile soil about two months before the first expected fall frost, 1/2 "deep and 1" apart, thin the seedlings 4-6". To ensure a consistent crop, plant seeds every two weeks. For fall and winter planting, you should plant radish about two months before the first expected fall frost. 
Growing of Red Arrow Radish: Radish is hygrophilous and loves organic fertilizers. Do not lеt the soil dry out, but also avoid over-watering as this can cause splitting.
How and When to Harvest Red Arrow Radish: Radish sprouts are ready to harvest in 3-5 days. Collect radishes as desired, keeping in mind that they have the most delicate taste in a small size.
Red Arrow Radishes Seed Saving: Radishes are cross-pollinated with all other radish varieties and should be isolated half a mile from different types. When the radishes are fully ripe and have a flowering stem, wait for the pods to form and turn brown. Dry the pods for a few days, thresh the seeds. Store radish seeds in a cool, dry place for five years.
