You can try to grow radishes on a windowsill, but since there is limited space, it is better to transfer it to open ground if possible. After all, there are much more chances to get a quality crop. Below are some tips that will benefit this process.
Correct soil
The success of a crop depends a lot on the soil. If the gardener plans to collect good fruits, then he needs to pay special attention to this issue. It is necessary to loosen the earth, adding missing components and vitamins there.
Appropriate place
In order for the radish to grow actively, certain conditions must be met. Namely, to land it in open ground in a sunny area, where there is practically no wind. Such a place can be found, for example, where one side of the garden bed will be blocked by the wall of a house or other structure.
Quality seeds
To get a good result, special attention should be paid to radish seeds. They must be purchased in a specialized store, where all conditions and storage periods are met.
Competent sowing
Sometimes gardeners make a big mistake when trying to plant more seeds than they should. Each hole must be made at least five centimeters from the other, then each sprout will feel comfortable.
Watering
Radish loves moist soil, so you need to moisten the soil daily. The main thing is not to confuse the definitions "moisten" and "flood".
Top dressing
If the soil is favorable, then you can do without additional fertilizers. If she is poor, then, of course, she should be enriched. Preference should be given to organic products.
Shine
A ten-hour light exposure is enough for radishes. An overabundance can lead to flowering of the plant. To avoid this, a dark non-woven fabric can be used.
Pests
Alas, most pests are very fond of radishes, so the fight should be started not at the time of their formation on the foliage, but much earlier. The gardener should always remember about preventive measures.
