Can green radish be grown in sand?

1. Is it possible?

Green radish can be grown in sand, and sand will accelerate its rooting and make the roots grow more vigorously. However, the sand contains fewer nutrients and cannot fully meet its growth needs. Therefore, if you use pure sand for breeding, sand does not store water, you need to water more and apply fertilizer in time to supplement nutrients.

2. Soil Selection

1. Sandy soil: It is not recommended to use pure sand for growing green radish. A small amount of soil can be mixed in. A large amount of sand and a small amount of soil can be mixed to make sandy soil. There should not be too much soil to ensure the soil's permeability and air permeability.

2. Rotten leaves or humus soil: Pothos likes warm and humus environment, which is more conducive to its growth. When planting, the soil is generally required to be loose, breathable and well-drained. Leaf mold or humus can meet these requirements, and slightly acidic leaf mold is most suitable.

3. Notes

You can use pure sand or a mixture of sand and soil to grow green radish. However, it is not recommended to use soil for cultivation. If soil is used entirely, it will be difficult to water thoroughly. If it is dry, it will easily become hard, and if it is wet, the roots will easily rot.
