Product Details

Young daikon radishes are often used shredded in sushi, but their light, slightly spicy flavor is a unique addition to many other dishes. Mature daikon is pickled or cooked; add to stir-fries or soups for crunch. Daikon is a winter radish, requiring shortening day length and cool temperatures to form. Sow after mid-summer or fall depending on your growing season. Deep roots are also used as a cover crop to break up heavy soils. Stores well.

    This is my first year of having a fall/winter garden in the Atlanta area and I wanted to try these. I planted these Daikon seeds Sept 15th and had very good germination. True to what the package says I am starting to harvest about 50 days later. I like to take a carrot peeler and shave peels of this white radish into my salads.

    The daikon radish was quick growing, even in my clay soil in zone 6b. It's resistant to the pests (rabbits, chipmunks, insects) that my other plants were susceptible to, and almost every seed germinated. I'm very happy with the growth so far!

    I'm not a gardener. I don't know what I'm doing. But I'm learning. I know I can count on Botanical Interests seeds to grow, despite my lack of gardening knowledge and experience. We planted these radish seeds the last week of April. They're all ready to harvest, and some are already bolting!
