Radish Long Red Vegetable Seeds

Description

Radish Long Red is a popular and easy-to-grow variety that features long, bright red roots with a crisp texture and peppery flavor. This variety is perfect for gardeners who want quick-growing vegetables to harvest in just a few weeks. Long Red radishes are great for salads, sandwiches, and garnishes, adding both crunch and a hint of heat to your dishes.
Key Features and Benefits: Radish Long Red has a crisp, juicy texture and a mild, peppery taste. It is a low-calorie vegetable, rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, promoting good health and immunity. The variety grows quickly, usually ready for harvest in 25-30 days. Radishes are also great for improving soil health, as they help break up compacted soil with their deep roots.
Care and Maintenance: Radishes prefer well-drained, loose soil and thrive in full sun. Plant seeds directly in the garden once the soil has warmed to about 60°F. Keep the soil consistently moist to encourage quick, healthy growth. Thin seedlings to allow the roots to develop fully, spacing them 1-2 inches apart. Harvest the radishes when they are 1-2 inches in diameter and firm to the touch.
Applications: Radish Long Red is perfect for fresh salads, sandwiches, and wraps. Its crunchy texture and peppery flavor make it an ideal addition to vegetable platters or used as a garnish. Radishes can also be pickled, roasted, or eaten raw for a refreshing snack.
