Thin seedlings to 4-6 inches apart after germination. While radishes like moist soil, be careful not to overwater as this can encourage pest problems. Pink Summercicle is a spring-type radish which means it matures quickly and is perfect for fresh use. It may also be sown in the fall after summer temperatures start to come down.
