Many people grow radishes in their gardens because they contain a wealth of nutrients and make salads much tastier.

Radishes do not always please with quick germination after sowing.

The expert of the site "TUT NOVOSTI", scientist agronomist and landscape designer Anastasia Kovrizhnykh will tell you about the reasons for the long germination.

Temperature

Radish likes to be in cool places. The optimum temperature for radish germination is about +10 degrees.

Lack of moisture

Radish does not like dry soil, so it needs to be watered regularly, and the soil condition should be monitored. Watering should be moderate.
