AnnualThe French Breakfast Radish is a blunt finger-shaped radish growing to about 3″ long. The roots are red blending to white at the tip. The flesh is crisp and white with a little kick. The short shelf life makes this variety perfect for the home gardener. Plant French Breakfast Radish Seeds very early in the spring in a sunny location as soon as the ground may be cultivated and enriched with organic material. For an extended harvest period, plant at two-week intervals avoiding hot summer temperatures. Press soil firmly over seeds.
I have had grown this type of radish in the past and the germination rate has been very good. In the spring I plan on growing these again. This is my favorite type of radish
These are always a favorite here! Thank you for the seeds!
This is one of the few radishes that I can actually grow to a radish. I thought I was the only one that couldn’t grow radishes. Then my brother-in-law told me that he had the same problem and he has been gardening for years. I told him about this radish. and he got it and was so pleased that he had radishes for the first time in his garden which grew to full-size.
I'm a container gardener and grow my radishes in 10 gal. fabric pots. I do have difficulty getting many radishes to form the radish and not just leaves and a tap root. The French Breakfast is one variety that does well. In the spring they develop a nice sweet taste with a touch of spiciness/heat. The ones grown in warmer months become hot. This coming season I will be changing my fertilization and hope all my Rad plump up. I know nitrogen will make them grow leaves so I use a bonemeal with a low N content. I may delay adding that until they are more mature.
French Breakfast Radish
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
Our banana peppers arrived fairly quickly, even though there was a winter storm in Michigan.
I'm sure they will do well, as most seeds from Migardener do well.
I’ve been growing these for multiple years now. I love all the little surprises that come up. I have quite a collection of cactus plants now, thanks to these seed packets.
Excellent germination! Excellent packaging! Probably jumped the gun a bit but only planted 6 seeds for now!
