Information presented in this bulletin allows Michigan vegetable growers to develop effective supplemental nutrient use programs. Nutrient recommendations are based on a soil test, soil type, yield and past crop management. Applying the recommended nutrient rates with proper timing and incorporation minimizes the potential that fertilizers will be a source of surface or groundwater contamination.

Good-quality radishes can be produced on either mineral or muck soils. Most of Ohio’s radishes are produced on muck soils.
Radishes mature fast, reaching harvestable size in 20-30 days. They have been known to mature in as few as 15 days.
Preferred planting dates are early spring, August or September. Seed germinates in 3-4 days with soil temperatures of 65-85°F and good soil moisture. Suitable crops can be obtained from mid-summer plantings.
