About -

Spice up your dishes with Richgrow Seeds Red Long Radish Open Pollinated Seeds, a zesty, non-GMO variety (Raphanus sativus), perfect for Indian home gardeners and farmers seeking crisp, deep red radishes at an unbeatable price! Known as Red Long Radish, this open-pollinated variety produces long, cylindrical roots, measuring 15–20 cm long, with a vibrant red skin and crisp, white flesh that offers a sharp, peppery flavor, ideal for salads, pickles, or garnishes, ready to harvest in 30–35 days after sowing. Rich in vitamins C and B6, along with antioxidants, these radishes promote heart health, and their seeds can be saved for future planting. The sturdy, upright plants, reaching 25–35 cm tall, are resistant to pests like flea beetles and diseases such as powdery mildew, thriving in cool to mild climates, with optimal sowing in early spring (February–March) or autumn (September–November) across Pan-India, especially in states like Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, and Karnataka.

Sow 2–3 seeds at a 0.5–1 cm depth in well-drained, fertile loamy soil (50% garden soil, 30% compost, 20% sand, pH 6.0–7.0) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 5–8 cm apart in rows 30–40 cm wide; achieve 85% germination within 5–8 days at 15–25°C. Maintain consistently moist soil with light watering (0.5–1 liter per plant every 2–3 days), avoiding waterlogging, and fertilize with organic compost or nitrogen-rich fertilizer every 3 weeks; use neem oil or organic sprays for pests like root maggots or aphids. Thin to one strong seedling per spot after 2 weeks for optimal root development. Harvest radishes when they reach a firm, glossy texture, typically 25–30 days after germination, pulling gently from the soil, ensuring excellent storage in a cool, dry place for up to 3–4 weeks. Store unopened seed packets in a cool, dry place for up to 2 years.

Available in Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (100–150 seeds), Standard Packet, Professional Pack (150–200 grams), or custom bulk orders, all in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets with an 85% germination rate, designed for your sustainable vision at www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com, reflecting your eco-friendly, customer-centric brand with nature-inspired packaging (green, brown, white).
