Hot radishes
Bob Smith wrote in message ... When I was a kid, radishes used to be hot. I heard that supermarkets sold horrible mild ones because people don't like them hot, so I planted my own. Mine aren't hot! Is there a specific variety that are hot? I planted 'Saxa' because it said on the packet 'peppery taste'. Thanks Bob Check the pH of your soil, acid soils( 6.0 )grow hotter stuff. Secondly do not fertilize while they are growing just use a small amount when preparing the bed. Mine, in the former colony of VA, have finally cooled down but it took me years to get the dirt right. I plant the old timey kind that are red without any white around the top. |
