Scarlet Globe is a very popular and easy variety producing bright red, evenly shaped roots with pure white, crisp, moist flesh and mild flavour.

Radishes grow well in most soils but prefer rich, moist, free draining soils. Sow at regular intervats from early spring to early summer into well cultivated soil. Sow very thinly 1cm (½in) deep in drills 15cm (6in) apart.

Thin out the seedlings to 3-5cm (1-2in) apart.

Water during dry spells. Harvest as soon as the roots reach reasonable size, if left too long they will become hot and woody
