How to Grow Full Size Radishes and Not Just Leaves: 4 Tips, Planting, Harvest & Proof

I struggled with radishes for years. I finally got it down.*(At 2:47, I say remove the strongest - should be remove the weakest). No fertilizer, loose soil, good spacing and thin them quickly. This video covers the four tips, planting and I show you a full harvest for proof. Radishes are cool weather crops you can plant in the spring and fall.

First-time gardener here. I just pulled up our radishes, they were the first things to come up. I had planned on pickling them, but the fam ate them all right out of the colander. I guess I need to plan more next year! I do see now that I planted them too close together as they were not as big as yours and were more elongated. Now I know!

[@sf8211]

Thank you. I've been growing more leafy greens than radishes. Now i know why.

Planting mine today!

[@SteveRichards]

Hi Gary, I grow very differently so maybe there’s an alternative way too. I mulch with 1” of compost and plant a seed every 1” in 6” rows (often between carrot rows or lettuce) I also feed with a Little Rock dust and seaweed meal (low nitrogen). So my density is 6 times yours but I get amazing radishes provided I water them. My preference is French Breakfast because they grow fast and big, but I grow lots of others too : all the best - Steve

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

That's a great system. Many ways to do it. The compost makes the difference.

[@SteveRichards]

Gary Pilarchik (The Rusted Garden) that’s pretty much how I grow everything, the only difference is that for heavy feeder I use a 2” compost mulch and a scattering of poultry pellets - thanks for a great channel : all the best - Steve

[@Dimology]

yeah, i do pretty much like that also. They do need space to grow, but tbh not that much. I have 3 beds of 1m by 9m and I do 6 rows and try to put the seed every 5cm. The other 2 things, loose soil and no fertilizer does good, and since i have it in greenhouse it try to watch out to not water them too much so they don't crack. So technically if you know how big the variety will grow, you can space them accordingly, as long as they are not bumping into eachother they are fine :)

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Many gardeners cant make tons of compost but it is a nice slow a low feed. Well under a 1-1-1 NPK. That doesn't cause excess leafy growth. My best and largest radish grew on my compost pile!

[@lauracowan8062]

I always have mixed luck. The best one for me was called a German Giant and they actually did well even over the summer in Colorado, temps of 90 to 102 weren't uncommon. I tried sparkler this year and black round spanish but neither of those grew well. I just had leaves mostly and a few tiny marble sized ones to eat. What's crazy is some of them spilled out into my yard and those are sometimes the best I've had, fighting back lawn and all. I'll try some of your methods this fall and see if I have better luck. Thanks for this great video.

Best video and information to help me succeed. I have tried to grow radishes for the last 5 years with little success. I enjoyed eating the tops but little to no radish. I will follow your suggestions. Thanks

[@chariprice]

great info Gary! This is just my second year veggie gardening, but I am starting to learn that the round smaller radishes must be about the only thing I can grow in my zone 7 region. None of the longer radishes grow well and end up bolting. I read somewhere radishes may help keep some bugs off squash so I planted a few seeds of the varieties that I don't have any luck with around them to see if they will help. I will just let those go to seed.

[@barbaradumler6503]

I have also been told that they help with the dreaded squash bug.

[@katharina...]

I'd much rather put 1 seed in each spot, wait 4 days till the radishes start sprouting and refill the spots that didn't sprout, than waste 50% of my seeds. Why waste seeds? A few days ago I put 36 seeds in the ground. 32 of them sprouted, so I added 4 more seeds. Much less work than removing 30 seedlings, and zero waste.

[@kevinadkinson2666]

Katharina You can grow radishes in bunches of 4-5... so you could just let both seeds grow. In my experience it doesn’t make enough of a difference to worry about.

[@katharina...]

@@kevinadkinson2666 Yes, I saw a video about it the other day, and next time I plant radishes I'll plant them in small bunches just to see what happens :) Thank you for your comment!

[@sminthian]

I think he's talking about more of a farming scale, not gardening. If you're dealing with thousands of radish plants, you just do whatever's fastest and easiest to get them growing.

[@michaelyaroschuk9567]

Same. The seed company says plant two. I say eff that, wait or plant somewhere else

[@delphzouzou4520]

@@sminthian If you're on a bigger scale, you don't plant radishes by hand, you use a planter, which will put one seed at a time.

[@angry_zergling]

Those are pretty radishes! I've grown a few dozen radish batches so far and I'm addicted to it - they grow they fast you go from seed to plate really quick. For some reason, though, the very first radish I picked ended up being a God-radish, nearly baseball size and perfectly round with unblemished, bright cherry red skin. I thought all of them would be like that but when I went back the next day to pull a couple more about a quarter of the rest weren't edible and the ones that were edible weren't any bigger than a quarter of the size of the first one I picked. They're tasty just a bit 'meh' looking and not aesthetically pretty. I would have been totally satisfied with these radishes had not my first pick been the Chad radish. Trying to replicate that perfect radish but I can't figure out why that one turned out so special and the ones that grew beside it (and have been grown in subsequent growings in the same spot) won't come close.

[@heathershomestead7612]

Planted about 30 Purple Plum radishes this year and only got 2 small round ones out of the bunch. The rest look like tiny purple carrots. :) I'm only in year 2 of this garden bed, and didn't fertilize at all last year, so I don't think too much fertilizer is my problem, must be the MD clay. I started a few of the same variety of radish in containers with container soil, so I'll see if they do better. Might need to invest in some coco coir. Can I still let the foliage bolt to harvest seeds for next year?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

The radishes will still bolt in the warmth. So you can get seed.

[@brusselsprout5851]

Thank you.

[@heavenbratt]

how do you know when to pull your radishes for harvest??

[@hastycontemplation]

My radish leaves as well as pea leaves look yellow, any idea of the cause?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Could be warm weather. Too much rain. Hard to say without pictures.

[@grandma_1887]

Most of mine split open ,, any thoughts.

[@LadySpace_888]

I believe that is from too much water.

[@donnarichardson5834]

Hi Gary. I plant in containers, and often have more than one thing in the same container. When you say, don't add fertilizer, does that mean nothing in that pot can get fertilizer. It looks like you also have other things growing with the radishes. Do they not get fed too? Also, when thinning, why remove the stronger plant instead of leaving the stronger plant, and removing the weaker/smaller one?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Just for radishes when it is just radishes. You just dont want them to have extra nitrogen as I find they get leafy. Other P and K and other stuff is fine.

Hi Gary! I sowed Radish seeds indoors in a aluminum foil tray on 25th may 2020.. they have germinated to a height of 2-3 inches. When should I replant them to outdoors ?

[@shannonwylie9419]

I planted Champion in the miracle grow organic moist control soil in a pot. The red stem is sticking out. Where did I go wrong? They have healthy green on top but I can see a red stem under the green. Is there another name for the Roxanne? I didn't see that type at my store. Great video. ¹Thank you.

[@witchescrossing]

When plucking one of the two radishes 3 days after they've emerged from the soil, you said to "pull the strongest and remove it" (at 2:47). Was that a mistake? I always thought that when thinning, you were supposed to pluck out the smallest, weakest ones. Please clarify. Great video! Thanks! 😊

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

Oh yea. Keep strongest but youll see they will look pretty equal. Ill fix it in my description.

[@rauljimenez8132]

Of all my seeds the Radish Roxanne Hybrid were the best at germinating....When is the ideal time to pull them out? Another excellent video.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

About the size you see. If it is cool you can let them go longer.

[@raptorgames9]

Can you grow radishes from the scrapes or do you need seeds? Do the already grown radishes have new seeds? Thanks!

I put the seeds all clumped together and they have germinated and have 2 leaves..can we pull them and replant them separately now? It's been a week .

[@jamesdahl6949]

We would appreciate any help you could give us or suggestions because our radishes we have done or planted I should say and just so you were talking about with lots of Coco core black cow manure mixed with putting soil and topsoil but cannot get anything except leggy plants and cannot figure it out. Radishes I thought were the most easiest plant to be successful with but for some reason we have a big problem with him. Nothing but leggy stems and no bulbs or fruit producing. We do excellent with our cucumbers, tomatoes, potatoes and several others but for some reason we're having a problem with the simplest of things to grow. Would appreciate any suggestions or advice you might have. Thank you very much.

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

They are actually pretty tough. I dont where I plant them in the spring. I found that to be the best for my area. Whatever was there last year was fine but no new fertilizer.

Thanks for sharing. One question - any fertilizer after the germination?

[@THERUSTEDGARDEN]

I dont for radishes. I just let them go. Compost is perfect as it is well below a 1-1-1 NPK. That is good for all plants Please Visit The Rusted Garden Seed & Garden Shop: www.therustedgarden.com/ - Seeds, Starting Supplies, Neem Oil, Peppermint & Other Oils, Calcium Nitrate & More

I live in the mountains in Western North Carolina (Asheville). Can I plant radishes throughout the summer or do I have to wait to plant them later in the season for a Fall harvest?

Hey why are my radishes growing red straight with no bulbs? They’re spaced and watered? :(

It can happen sometimes. Sometimes to warm, sometimes to much nitrogen. I would start some more. And I recommend not feeding them, if you did.

I just pulled my radishes and it was greens only. It was my attempt to grow radishes in the summer but it’s too hot. I’ll make a pesto out of the greens.

[@gabrielsoul7]

I grow Raddish in a tropical climate all year round in full sunlight(otherwise it wont grow) and plenty of water. They grow well. Raddish likes water, sunlight and nutrient deprived soil. Plus I live in the hottest part of the country plus I grow on my roof.

[@ShineyPenny654]

Is there a way to lower the nitrate level in soil? I grow all my veggies in pots/tubs/grow boxes and used the same soil mix in them all which has fertilizer already in it. I'm growing radish leaves.

Not that I am aware of beyond growing fast growing crops.

@@THERUSTEDGARDEN thanks for the reply! 😁 This is my first year gardening in MD zone 7. My first radishes did terribly. I realized I had WAY too much sun on them/my entire garden. I purchased a garden cover and have replanted radish, carrots, bush beans, and trying one more round of summer squash. I learned about squash borers the hard way. Got 1 squash before I had to pull the entire plant. 🥺 The cover has appeared to make a massive difference! So exciting 🤩 I'm doing everything in a very limited diy planters/containers. Its been so exciting, frustrating, and rewarding even though all I've really yielded is a couple tomatoes, 1 jalapeño, & 1 squash this season. 😅 Here's hoping for round 2! 😁 I did have a question- have you grown eggplants? My eggplants have only flowered, flower falls, & then it grows & repeats. I have yet to have either plant start to produce 😕 but they don't look unhealthy? Its kind of strange. 😅 Thank you for your super helpful content! I just subscribed to your channel. 😊
