Today, I'm going to grow one of the easiest and quickest vegetables...
...The radish.
Radish is a fantastic vegetable for children to grow...
...It can grow from seed to vegetable in as little as 18 days.
But up here, I'm sure it will take 3 weeks to a month until they're ready to eat.
As well as being easy to grow...
...Radish is full of vitamin c and antioxidants, which helps your immune system.
Well, when you think of radish, you think of these little hot vegetables you find in a salad.
But, there's so many different varieties.
There's multicoloured varieties, watermelon types...
...You can even get a Chinese variety. These are white with a red inside.
There's even a German variety for the winter.
So, if you like radish, you can grow them all year long!
Radish is extremely easy to grow.
All you need is a tub like this with some multi-purpose compost.
I'm going to plant this multicoloured variety.
All you have to do is spread them on the surface of the compost.
Then cover the seeds with some compost.
You don't need to plant them too deep.
Then water it.
I'm going to put this in the poly-tunnel, so it has the best chance possible to grow.
If you don't have a poly-tunnel, you can put it on your windowsill.
