26 days. Raphanus sativus. Open Pollinated. Golden Helios Radish. This early maturing plant produces heavy yields of bright yellow oil-shaped radishes and white flesh. The radishes are sweet with a mild flavor. High in Vitamin C, Potassium, Vitamin B6, and Folic Acid. One of the most beautiful radishes. It is named after the Greek god of the sun. This gorgeous radish is perfect for salads, vegetable platters, gourmet dishes, dips, shish kabob, and garnishes. It is great for warmer climates as it resists spiciness and bitterness than most red radishes. Very easy to grow. It can be grown for spring to fall harvest. To extend the season, plant at one week intervals until late summer for a fall crop. An excellent choice for home gardens and specialty market growers. A variety from the USA.

Plant seeds outdoors directly in the garden as soon as the soil can be worked. Radish roots do not grow well in hot summer, so plant in early spring or fall. Plant successive plantings every few weeks to have a steady supply of radishes. Plant 3 - 4 weeks before the last frost in spring, and 6 weeks before the first frost in fall. Plants are 2" to 6" tall.
Requires fertile soil in a well drained location in the garden. Apply mulch, grass clippings, or straw around the base of the plant.
Keep soil uniformly moist and prevent it from drying out.
Use Slow Release (6 Month) Fertilizer when transplanting outdoors. Periodically apply Miracle Gro Liquid Fertilizer.
Dig or pull roots when they are mature. If left in the ground too long, they will crack and taste bitter.
