Good to know
  • Exceptionally rapid maturity (~25 days), providing one of the earliest spring harvests in the garden
  • Maintains firm, crisp, solid white flesh without turning spongy or pithy as roots grow larger
  • Versatile dual crop—tender leafy tops serve as edible greens for fresh salads, cooking
  • Requires timely harvesting; leaving roots in ground during hot weather leads to overly pungent flavor
  • Overcrowded seedlings inhibit round root formation, requiring early thinning after emergence
