RADISH - HAILSTONE

RADISH - HAILSTONE

Raphanus sativus

Hailstone is a sweet tasting bunching style of radish.
It has abundant, strong tops for ease of bunching and
uniform round pure white coloured roots with a sweet
mild flavour. The skin is clean, white, and mostly
unblemished. This popular old heirloom has been
around since prior to WW1.. This is a great radish
for eating straight from the garden or for selling at
markets. It holds well once it has been picked.
Radishes are a great way to
start young children off with gardening. They are
very easy to grow, will grow in almost any conditions
and mature at a very fast, exciting rate. The seed
should be planted 0.5-1mm deep as close as 2cm
apart and in rows 10-15cm apart. They need good
watering to prevent pithiness in hot conditions.
Radishes can be planted all year round, any place
in Australia. The fact that they emerge so quickly
makes them great for planting with vegetables that
are slow to emerge as the radish seedling break
up the surface and mark the rows where the other
plants will emerge.
