Radish White Long Seeds (Mino Early)

Radish is the fastest vegetable most balcony growers ever sow — pale, crisp roots, mild if pulled young and a bit sharper if left a while longer. It's a good confidence crop for anyone new to container gardening, since it asks for so little: a reasonably deep pot, decent sun, and patience measured in weeks rather than months. Seeds go in about 1 cm deep and germinate in 4-7 days under full sun (5-6 hours daily) with the soil kept evenly moist. Once seedlings are up, thin them to 8-10 cm apart — crowding is the usual reason container radishes come out thin and forked instead of round. Left undisturbed after that, roots are ready to pull in 35-45 days, which makes this a crop you can sow again every couple of weeks for a steady supply instead of one big harvest.
