The French Breakfast Radish is my favorite radish variety right now! Quick to harvest (approx. 27 days) and easy to grow. I haven\'t tried them as a spring radish yet, only fall radishes that I even was able to harvest in January! |

If you have children, let them plant these. They germinate quickly and are wonderfully mild at any size. They seem to grow larger in the fall. Wonderful in salads or by themselves. |

A good reliable radish, slower to bolt than other varieties I've tried. Works well during winter indoors in a sunny window. |

Hard to beat radishes when it comes to ease and reliability at least here in Norther Ohio. I literally throw the seeds down in early April and am picking these tasty radishes first of May right before I plant my summer crops. |

I have never grown radishes before, but after two crops, I will will continue to plant them. They are mild with crunch. Now what can I do with radishes other than use them in salads? |

I planted this in Feb.and it germinated within 5 days. I pulled some up after 6 weeks to test them. They were still very small but a great flavor. After another 4 weeks I pulled a few more and still not very large but the flavor just got better. They are ready to all be pulled up and I don't expect large radishes since our temps have reached 90 over the past 4 weeks but the flavor just keeps holding up well. They are not hot and spicey as many globe radishes can be. These are a very mild radish and I will grow again this fall. |
