When should I sow French Breakfast radish seeds?
French Breakfast is a fast, cool-season radish. Direct sow in early spring as soon as the soil can be worked, and again in late summer for a fall crop. Avoid the peak heat of midsummer, which makes roots pithy and overly pungent.
How long until French Breakfast radishes are ready to harvest?
This is one of the quickest radishes, usually ready in about 23 to 30 days from sowing. Pull them when the roots are around 3/4 to 1 inch across; leaving them too long makes them woody.
How should I space French Breakfast radish plants?
Sow seeds about 1/2 inch deep and 1 inch apart, in rows 6 inches apart. Thin seedlings to 2 inches once they are up so the elongated roots have room to form.
Can I grow French Breakfast radishes in a container?
Yes. Their small oblong roots do well in a pot at least 6 inches deep with drainage holes. Keep the soil evenly moist and give the container full sun to part shade for the best texture.
How many seeds come in a packet?
Each packet contains about 200 French Breakfast radish seeds, enough for several successive sowings across a season.
Are these French Breakfast radish seeds heirloom and non-GMO?
Yes. French Breakfast is a classic French heirloom variety, and these seeds are non-GMO and open-pollinated, so you can save seed from your best plants.
