When and how to plant carrots

Planting time for carrots

Red radish can be sown between May and August. It is generally planted in two crops. In summer, it is generally sown in July and August, and in spring, it can be sown in April and May. It is best to sow when the weather is relatively clear.

How to grow red radish

1. Planting soil: Red radish is more suitable for growing in loam with deep soil and good drainage. The land needs to be deeply plowed before sowing, and sufficient base fertilizer should be applied. Decomposed organic fertilizer can be used.

2. Seed treatment: Before sowing red radish, you need to select relatively full and disease-free seeds, then soak them in warm water for about 12 hours, then take them out and dry them, which will be conducive to later germination.

3. Sowing: When sowing carrot seeds, make sure the soil is flat. After sowing the seeds, cover them with a layer of soil. In order to ensure uniform sowing, you can mix in some sand.

Red radish planting precautions

1. After sowing the red radish, it needs to be watered appropriately to keep the soil moist. After growing for a period of time, seedlings will emerge.

2. When caring for red radish in the seedling stage, you need to pay attention to ensuring that there is sufficient sunlight, which is extremely beneficial for its growth. However, direct sunlight needs to be avoided in the summer.
