Seed preparation for sowing
For a good harvest, radish seeds are properly treated before sowing. If Rondar seeds are from the originating company, they are usually processed. They are sown in the soil. Other seeds must be sorted out and small ones discarded.
- The seeds are soaked in water for 8-12 hours and sown;
- Placed in a damp cloth and placed in a warm place for a day;
- Warmed up in water at a temperature of 48-50 aboutC for 15 minutes. Then they are cooled and treated with growth stimulants according to the instructions, dried and sown.
Growing features
The Rondar hybrid is grown in open areas and in greenhouses. Plants grow well at temperatures up to 20 aboutC.
In the open field
For radishes, choose a sunny area or with light shading before or after lunch.
- Before processing the beds, 20 g of superphosphate and potassium sulfate are scattered over the surface, 5 g of carbamide or the same amount of minerals are dissolved in 10 liters of water and the soil is watered;
- In spring, radishes are sown in April, but no later than May 10. If the heat is above 25 aboutC the plant is arrowed;
- For autumn use, sowing is carried out from the end of July;
- 8-10 cm are left between the rows, the seeds are placed with an interval of 3-7 cm;
- Planting depth - up to 2 cm on light soils, 1.5 cm on heavy soils.
In the greenhouse
The Rondar variety, due to its fast ripening, is suitable for growing indoors. Maintain a temperature of at least 18 aboutC. In winter, little additional light is provided, because the plant needs a short daylight hours - up to 12 hours. Compliance with up to 1500 suites.
- The acidic soil is leached by adding up to 15 kg of horse manure per 1 sq. m;
- When digging soil for 1 sq. m of soil, 15 g of potassium chloride or 30 g of potassium magnesium and 40 g of superphosphate are introduced;
- The rows are made at a distance of 8-10 cm, the seeds are placed every 3-5 cm to a depth of 1-2 cm;
- Radishes can be hardened with parsley or carrots;
- For greenhouses, the cassette method of growing the Rondar hybrid is justified;
- In the process of development, the hybrid radish variety Rondar is fed and protected from diseases and pests with wood ash (100 g / m2), tobacco dust, use the preparation for root crops "Zdraven-aqua".
Growing problems
Possible problems | Causes |
The structure of the radish fruit is fibrous, the taste is bitter | Rare, intermittent, and scanty watering, the soil is dry. For 1 sq. m of crops you need 10 liters of water daily, or 15 liters each with two watering |
The tops develops, the root crop is not formed | Thickened planting; the seeds are deeply planted; late sowing - at the end of May or June; shading of the site. Sometimes, when cutting the tops, the radish roots grow. |
Hollow root vegetables | An excess of organic matter and manure was laid. Nitrogen stimulates the development of green mass to the detriment of root crops. The situation is corrected by introducing 100 g of wood ash per 1 sq. m or a solution of 20 g of potassium sulfate per 1 liter of water |
Root vegetables are cracking | Irregular watering. Radish is poured with warm water in the evening through a watering can |
Shooting | Although the Rondar hybrid is resistant to flowering, the gardener can provoke even such a plant with daily weeding or breaking. By shooting, the radish protects itself from interference, extending its genus and producing seeds. |
Diseases and pests
Radish Rondar is a hybrid plant that is practically not susceptible to diseases, but pests can attack crops.
Diseases / pests | Signs | Control measures and prevention |
In the greenhouse, radishes can be threatened by cruciferous powdery mildew and downy mildew | Mealy bloom on the bottom or top of the radish leaves. The plate is deformed, turns brown | Apply fungicides Ditan M, Ridomil Gold |
Vascular bacteriosis | On developed leaves, the veins turn black, the leaves turn yellow, crumble | The infection is transmitted by seeds, which must be soaked for 15-20 minutes in hot water |
Gray rot | Brown spots on roots start to rot | Diseased plants are removed. Prevention - fungicides and collection of plant residues |
Cruciferous fleas | Leaves in small holes. Gradually the seedlings dry up | The soil is sprinkled with wood ash with tobacco dust after sowing and over young shoots. Powdered also with ground pepper. Spray with a solution of a bottle of vinegar per 10 liters of water |
Cabbage fly | The larvae damage radish roots, grind through the tunnels | Preventively, in the fall, the remnants of cabbage leaves are removed from the garden, the soil is plowed deeply. Do not plant radishes after or next to cabbage |
Conclusion
A high-yielding hybrid will reveal its potential if you purchase seeds from the originator's company, water the plant regularly. Top dressing is best applied to the soil before sowing. Correct crop rotation will exclude the development of diseases.
