| I planted these as a fall crop. They germinated well, taking a bit longer to reach a worthwhile size with the cooler weather and shorter days of autumn, as expected. Excellent flavor, with a decent bit of radish pungency paired with a crisp texture and enough sweetness to balance the light heat. My problem is that these were quite prone to splitting when we got a rainy spell, and the ones that weren\'t thinned meticulously ended up small and worthless. |
