Miyashige White Daikon Radish Seeds

Raphanus sativus

Young daikon radishes are often used shredded in sushi, but their light, slightly spicy flavor is a unique addition to many other dishes. Mature daikon is pickled or cooked; add to stir-fries or soups for crunch. Daikon is a winter radish, requiring shortening day length and cool temperatures to form. Sow after mid-summer or fall depending on your growing season. Deep roots are also used as a cover crop to break up heavy soils. Stores well.

    Best radish and the best seeds for it

    For whatever reason I've never been able to find local sources of specifically daikon seeds, which has been really annoying since they're the only radish I go out of my way to eat. These turned out mild and sweet just like you'd expect, sprouted reliably and quickly, no issues. Even when I made the mistake of trying to plant some for the summer I still got a few for harvesting, and even the ones that flowered brought some nice color and texture, but the fall/winter ones turned out great as they should

    As always, my seeds arrived quickly, and safely packed in a beautiful little box. So far, I have only planted the White Daikon seeds, which are really growing. I'm looking forward to a great radish harvest.
