Radish, Pink 'Rioja Improved'

Product number: 694610
Origin: Eurasia
Latin: Radish

Fast-growing, tender radish leaves in a fresh pink color. The leaves are hairless and have a pleasantly mild radish flavor. Harvest them very young, young, or fully grown: always delicious. The roots (radishes) are small and not edible.

This variety is cultivated as sprouts (for the white sprout) or as microgreens (for the young plant with cotyledons or first true leaves). Sprout cultivation is done in the dark and in warmth; the sprouts can stay fresh in the refrigerator for a week, provided they are well drained. Microgreens are grown on moisture-retaining material (paper towels, cotton wool, soil). For germination, keep dark and warm; after germination, keep light and cooler.

Names:
Latin: Raphanus sativus
Dutch: Radijskiem
Also known as: Pink Daikon Cress
English: Radish Sprouts

Sowing method: Cultivation method 1. Rinse the seeds with lukewarm water and soak them for an hour. Drain the water and rinse the seeds twice a day with lukewarm water. Cultivate them, for example, in a glass jar or special sprouting kit. Between rinses, store the jar upside down in a dark and warm place. Cultivation method 2. Like cress, the seeds can also be grown on filter paper or in a thin layer of soil. Harvest when the cotyledon has fully developed.
