Radishs ruined - by what?

Radishes grow fast, so you should be able to start from seed 6 weeks before the first frost date of your area. I recommend planting the new crop in another location.

Daikon are a bit slower growing, and I'm going to try for a fall crop. Which means the soil will be warm and full of hungry bugs :(

Some boring bug has ruined all of my daikon. They bore into the root and eat their way through it, leaving brown goo behind. It's too late t do anything about them this year, but what can I do next time to prevent this?

Mix heaping teaspoonfuls of wood ashes 1 inch into the soil where th radishes and onions will be growing. another thing u might try addin is some fleece over the rows after u have them seeded i have heard tha it does help. good luck, sockiescat:)

Ahh, wood ashes, still have a bunch in my wood stove - I'll try that, as I'm going to put in a fall crop next month.
