We’ll see how they go through May and judge at the end of the month then.
Tried growing Radish using Biodynamic calendar and they have done rather well – we’ll be harvesting the first row next week. That will be 8 weeks for a sowing on March 8th.
I also tried sowing seeds in soil blocks put direct into the ground and the quality of germination and plant health 3 weeks later is also very good. It also means you have relatively little thinning out to do, because the spacing between soil blocks is about what you want for radish anyway! I wonder if this is another way of improving soil fertility in year 1 whilst growing a simple crop??
