peppery bite. It's a fast, reliable variety that holds its quality well in the garden. Who it's for Perfect for beginners and impatient gardeners who want quick, crisp, mild radishes that stay good a bit longer in the ground. How & when to plant Direct sow as soon as the soil can be worked in early spring, and again in late summer for fall. Sow seeds 1/2 inch deep, thinning to 1–2 inches apart in full sun with loose, even-moisture soil. Radishes grow well in USDA zones 2–10 and prefer cool weather; sow every 1–2 weeks for a steady supply. Harvest Roots are ready in about 25–30 days. Pull when they reach 1–1.5 inches across; Champion holds its crisp texture a little longer than most, but pick promptly for the best flavor. Overly mature roots can turn spongy and hot. Benefits & uses Crisp and mildly peppery, Champion radishes are perfect sliced into salads, added to sandwiches, or served with butter and salt. Their bright color and clean crunch make them a fresh garden snack. Growing guide: New to this variety?
