Black Round Radish Growing Season In India

Radishes are typically grown during the winter season (October to February) in India, but they can also be cultivated during the monsoon season (July to September) in some regions, especially in cooler areas.

How To Grow Black Round Radish In Pot

Direct seed sowing in any pot/grow bag is the best way to grow black radishes because transplanting disturbs their roots. Choose a pot/grow bag (45-60 cm wide and 15-30 cm deep) with well drainage holes. The ideal temperature for black radish seed germination is 12-24°C.

Black Round Radish Seeds Sowing Method

Sow black radish seeds directly in a pot or grow bag about 1-2 cm deep and 5-10 cm apart in soil. Give light water through a watering can and keep the soil moist. Radish seeds will be germinated within 4-10 days. Place the container in a sunny place where it receives proper sunlight.

When To Fertilize Black Radish Plant

Black radish or other radishes do not need much fertilizer after planting. Radish like plenty of phosphorous so, make sure that you have added organic fertilizer and bone meal powder into the soil before seeds sowing. Don’t use too much nitrogen because it will encourage heavy top growth and discourage root bulbs.

Black Round Radish Care Tips

Water – Give regular water to radish plants and keep the soil moist not soggy.
Soil – For better results for white radish plants use well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil.
Sunlight – Radishes need full sun (at least 6 hours of direct light is necessary for the fast growth of white radish plants).
Temperature – The ideal temperature for growing a white radish plant is 10-30°C.
Common pests and diseases – Some pests like snails, slugs, aphids, flea beetles, cutworms, and cabbage loopers can attack radish plants. Cabbage maggots can spread a disease called a bacterial white spot to the roots. Use organic insecticide neem oil to control pests and diseases in radish plants.

FAQ

Why are my radishes not making bulbs?

The main reason for not growing radish bulbs is overcrowding. Radishes need more space to grow their bulbs and overcrowding doesn't provide space to grow bulbs.

Why are my black radish seeds not germinating?

Black radish seeds will not germinate because of improper growing conditions like not getting enough sunlight, sowing seeds too deep in the soil, overwatering, or under-watering.
