Variety traits

Vegetation period of radish

Raphanus sativus L. var. sativus

The duration of the period from seedling emergence to the technical maturity of the root crops, which determines the classification of varieties and cultivation strategy.

In the reference 54 varieties crop Radish, where this is mentioned in the description.

The vegetation period of radish is calculated in days from the moment of full seedling emergence to the onset of technical maturity of the root crops. Varieties are subdivided into early-maturing (up to 25–30 days, including ultra-early-maturing of 18–22 days), mid-maturing (30–40 days), and late-maturing (41–60 days).

The short vegetation cycle allows for the use of radish as a catch crop and for organizing sequential production. At the same time, development is significantly influenced by the photoperiod: with a long daylight period of over 12–14 hours, the crop is prone to premature bolting, which degrades product quality.

High temperatures accelerate the developmental stages of radish but negatively affect the marketability of the root crops, causing hollowness, lignification, and bitterness. Late-maturing varieties with a longer root formation period generally possess better storage life compared to early-maturing ones.
