Variety traits
Raphanus sativus L. var. niger (Mill.) S. Kerner
A classification trait determined by the number of days from seedling emergence to the technical maturity of the root crop, which directly influences the sowing strategy, storability, and suitability of the harvest for winter storage.
In the reference 44 varieties crop Black radish, where this is mentioned in the description.
Black radish varieties are divided into groups based on the length of the growing season: early-maturing (up to 60 days), mid-maturing (50–85 days), mid-late (75–90 days), and late-maturing (over 90 days). The choice of maturity group is a decisive factor in cultivation technology, as black radish is sensitive to long daylight hours and high temperatures, which trigger bolting.
There is a direct correlation between the maturity group and the storage capacity of the root crops. Late-maturing varieties possess better storability characteristics and are intended for winter storage, whereas early varieties are suitable primarily for summer consumption. Deviating from the harvest timing relative to the biological maturity characteristic of a specific group leads to a loss of product quality, including tissue coarsening and the formation of cavities.
