HOW TO GROW
Sowing: Direct sow the first crop of radishes in rich soil, about four weeks before the last expected spring frost. Plant French Breakfast radish seeds in deeply worked up soil about 1/2" deep and 1" apart; later, thin the seedlings 2-3" apart or more for larger radishes. For a continuous harvest, plant a new crop every two weeks. Since most radishes do not tolerate heat well, it is best to avoid planting French Breakfast radish seeds in the heat of midsummer. For a fall crop and winter storage, plant about two months before the first expected fall frost.
Growing: Radishes do well with consistently moist soil and the addition of organic matter such as compost. Do not allow the soil to dry out, but also avoid overwatering as this can cause splitting.
Harvesting: French Breakfast radishes taste best when harvested at a length of 3". The flavor is mildly spicy and the texture crisp.
Seed Saving: Radishes will cross pollinate with all other varieties of radish, and must be isolated by at least half a mile from other varieties to protect genetic purity. Allow the radish plant to fully mature and send up a flowering stalk; the pods will form and turn from green to brown. Pick the brown pods and allow them to dry for several days. Thresh out the seeds by opening the pods by hand, or by applying pressure to crush them. Store French Breakfast radish seeds in a cool, dry place for up to five years.

This is the 2nd year that we've purchased seeds from Everwilde. Fast service, excellent, disease free seeds are the reason I am a repeat customer. I've gardened for decades and have found no better seeds.

This is the first time I used Everwilde. I was looking for french breakfast radish seeds and could not find any and they came up in my search. Service was fast, packaging is great - re-closable bags make life easier to plant in succession. Seed looks good. The french breakfast radish is the perfect radish, best grower and tasting.
