The flavor is mild compared to other radishes and looks more like a carrot. Though mild in flavor, they are rich in nutrients—the roots contain high levels of vitamin C, potassium and folate while the leaves contain beta-carotene, calcium and iron. The mild flavor of this Daikon makes it a great addition to salads. Roots can also be peeled, sliced, grated, diced for soups and stews, boiled whole or dehydrated as strips. Rabbits, goats, cows, hogs will enjoy the roots and chickens relish the tops!

Growing Tips

• Plant seeds 4-6 weeks before the average last frost in your area, or as soon as the soil is workable.
• If you want to plant in the fall, wait until it’s cooler out.
• Prefers full sun but can tolerate partial shade.
• Prefer loose, fertile, well-drained soil with a pH of 5.5 to 6.8.
• Planting seeds in pots produces the food quickly with minimum effort, but they can also be grown in the garden outdoors.
