Generally, white radish germinates in about three days and emerges in about 4-5 days. Because white radish likes to grow in a warm environment, it is best to control the temperature at around 20~25 after sowing. Moreover, the planted seedlings should pay attention to controlling watering, keeping the soil moist, and ensuring the emergence of seedlings in about 4~5 days.

Sowing date and method of white radish

1, planting time:

There are many varieties of white radish, which have wide adaptability to planting time. It can be planted all year round. Planting time can be selected according to local climate and varieties. Sowing is usually carried out in the autumn of September 9- 10/0.

2. Prepare the soil:

The root system of white radish is deep and developed, so when planting, you must choose a place with deep soil, which requires loose soil, ventilation, nutrition and good drainage. Apply sufficient base fertilizer in advance and use decomposed organic fertilizer.

3, sowing:

Choose varieties with good quality, high yield and strong stress resistance, dig holes in the divided soil, water the soil to keep it moist, then put a few seeds in each hole and cover it with a thin layer of soil.

How to manage white radish after emergence

1, water:

Water should be controlled after the emergence of white radish. At this time, the root system is fragile, so water less and water frequently. One-time watering should not be excessive to avoid a large amount of water in the soil.

2, reasonable topdressing:

White radish does not need fertilization after emergence. After the seedlings grow, they can be watered and applied with thin fertilizer to promote the growth of seedling leaves. Be careful not to use thick fertilizer to avoid fertilizer damage.

3, pest control:

After the emergence of white radish, pest control should be done well. Aphids, Pieris rapae, beetles, sawflies and scarabs are harmful at seedling stage, so we can prevent and control them in time and use pesticides in a targeted way.
