LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD RADISH

The Little Red Riding Hood radish variety is an early-maturing and undemanding variety-sprinter that forms a yield as early as 20-29 days after germination. The root crops have an oval shape with a convex head, a diameter of 2-3 cm, and a mass of 20-25 g. Their peel is bright red with a white tip, while the flesh is dense, juicy, crunchy, white, with a pleasant combination of moderate spiciness and slight sweetness. The autumn yield is sweeter, which makes this radish especially tasty and attractive to consumers.

The variety is characterized by high commercial quality and simultaneous maturation of all root crops, which allows harvesting the yield in one go. Little Red Riding Hood radish grows well on light, moist soils and prefers sunny spots. It is frost-resistant and disease-resistant, which facilitates growing even for novice gardeners. The leaf rosette is erect, and young leaves of the spring yield can be used in salads and okroshka, expanding the possibilities of the plant's application.

This radish is recommended for growing in open ground, hotbeds, film tunnels, and greenhouses. The yield of the variety is 1.8-2 kg per square meter, which makes it economically viable for growing. Due to its low caloric content (only 16 kcal per 100 g) and high fiber content, radish promotes improved digestion and maintains a healthy diet, which is especially valuable for those who monitor their figure and health.
