How long is the growth cycle of white radish?

Introduction to the growth of white radish

White radish is suitable for growing in fertile and loose soil. It is produced in Zhejiang, Taiwan, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and other places. In addition, it is also distributed in North Korea and Japan.

White radish growth cycle

White radish is a semi-cold-resistant vegetable. It prefers a cool climate with large temperature differences. It is not drought-tolerant and prefers a sunny environment. It has strong photosynthesis and high yield. If there is insufficient light, the nutrients accumulated are less, the quality is poor, and the yield will also decrease.

White radish is sown in mid-July and will mature in mid-September after 60 days of growth. The growing period is 70-120 days.

Growth rate of white radish

The growth process of white radish mainly goes through the germination period, seedling period, vigorous leaf growth period, fleshy root growth period and storage period.

White radish grows very fast, especially in the seedling stage, and then the growth rate slows down.

White radish growth cycle management

The average yield per acre is about 4,000 kilograms.

Temperature management: White radish prefers a cool climate with large temperature differences. It can germinate when the temperature is 2 to 3 degrees, but the suitable temperature for seed germination is 20 to 25 degrees. If the temperature is low during the seedling period, warming measures need to be taken.

Fertilization management: Before planting white radish, you can apply sufficient base fertilizer to improve the fertility of the soil. Fertilize in time when seedlings emerge during the growth process to supplement trace elements. You can also apply foliar fertilizer to promote leaf growth.
