Radish maturity group
Raphanus sativus L.
The radish maturity group is determined by the number of days from emergence to the technical maturity of the root crops and is a key factor in selecting sowing dates and determining storage potential.
In the reference 73 varieties crop Radish, where this is mentioned in the description.
For radish, the duration of the growing season is divided into three main groups: early-maturing or summer varieties ripen in 25–60 days, mid-maturing in 60–90 days, and late-maturing or winter varieties in 90–150 days. Oilseed radish reaches technical maturity of green mass in approximately 45 days.
The maturity trait determines the cultivation strategy: early varieties are sown in spring for quick consumption, whereas late-maturing ones are sown in mid-summer to obtain a crop with high keeping quality, suitable for long-term storage. An incorrect choice of maturity group relative to sowing dates and photoperiod can cause premature bolting and a decrease in root crop quality.
