Tips
Grow radishes from seed directly into the ground or your pot/container – radish roots can be damaged easily.
They like full sun to partial shade but in the heat of summer choose an area that gets some afternoon shade otherwise they may bolt and go to seed. If you do live in an extremely hot climate it's best to avoid planting over summer.
Radishes need a regular, consistent supply of water (not intermittent eg no water for several days and then lots and lots of it all of a sudden) so they don't crack, they also don't like to compete with weeds so keep the area around them weed free.
In winter they will grow a little slower and take longer to reach harvest size.
Sow new seeds every 2-3 weeks so you have a continuous supply.
