Specifications

Kern 766 F1 Radish is an edible root vegetable. It is cultivated for its crisp, peppery-flavored roots, which come in various shapes, sizes, and colors. Radishes are widely grown and consumed worldwide, appreciated for their versatility in culinary applications and relatively short growing period.

Character

Agronomy

Radish is a fast-growing, cool-season vegetable crop cultivated for its edible root. Radish seeds are relatively easy to grow and can be sown directly into the ground in both home gardens and commercial farms.

Soil Preparation:

1. Soil Type: Radishes thrive in well-drained, loose soil rich in organic matter.
2. pH Level: Aim for a slightly acidic to neutral soil pH between 6.0 and 7.0.
3. Soil Testing: Conduct soil tests to assess nutrient levels and pH, amending the soil as necessary with organic matter or fertilizers.

Planting:

1. Timing: Plant radish seeds in early spring or late summer for best results. Radishes prefer cooler temperatures for germination and growth.
2. Spacing: Sow seeds thinly in rows spaced approximately 12-18 inches apart.
3. Depth: Plant seeds at a depth of 1/4 to 1/2 inch in the soil.
4. Sunlight: Radishes require full sun exposure for optimal growth.

Watering:

1. Moisture: Keep the soil consistently moist throughout the growing season.
2. Watering Schedule: Water radish plants deeply but infrequently, aiming to provide around 1 inch of water per week.

Kern 383 is an open-pollinated desi radish of the palak-patta type, grown through the autumn and Rabi season for long white roots and quick turnaround.

The crop

  • Type: open-pollinated desi radish, palak-patta type
  • Season: autumn and Rabi
  • Sowing window: August to November
  • Maturity: quick — suited to taking two or three batches in a single Rabi season
  • Root: long and white
  • Pack size: 500 gm

Two things that decide your rate

Radish is graded by eye at the mandi, and appearance carries much of the price. Growers watch for two failures in particular:

  • Bolting. If the crop throws flower stalks, the root never fills and the planting is lost. Stay inside the sowing window — sowing into the December–February period invites bolting in any desi radish
  • Pithiness. Hollow roots are rejected outright, and once a lot gets that reputation the rate drops for the whole batch. Harvest on time rather than leaving the crop standing too long

Planning your batches

Because the turnaround is quick, growers commonly plant in staggered batches through the window rather than all at once — which also spreads the risk if the mandi rate falls in any one week.
