Sowing
Since watermelon radish seeds are winter radishes, they should be planted about two months before the first expected fall frost. Plant the radish seeds in very rich,deeply worked up soil about 1/2 inch deep and 1 inch apart; later, thin the seedlings 4-6 inches.

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
Watermelon radishes can be harvested at any time up to their mature size of 3 inch. The flavor is sweet and crisp. They also store well for the winter.
