Why Grow Pink Lady Slipper Radish?

How to Grow Pink Lady Slipper Radish in Singapore

Pink Lady Slipper is a quick-growing radish that performs best in relatively cool conditions. In Singapore, aim to grow during the cooler part of the year and select a bright, well-ventilated position that avoids excessive afternoon heat. Loose, fertile and free-draining soil encourages smooth, well-shaped roots.

1. Prepare the soil.
   Choose a well-drained growing area and loosen the soil thoroughly. Remove stones, hard clumps and other obstructions that could interfere with development of the roots.
2. Direct sow the seeds.
   Sow Pink Lady Slipper radish seeds approximately 6–12 mm deep. Radishes are best direct sown because transplanting can disturb development of the main root.
3. Maintain moisture.
   Keep the soil consistently moist during germination and root development without allowing it to become waterlogged. Germination commonly occurs in approximately 4–7 days under suitable conditions.
4. Thin the seedlings.
   Thin established seedlings to approximately 5 cm apart. Adequate spacing helps the roots develop their characteristic plump, elongated shape.
5. Encourage steady growth.
   Maintain even soil moisture and avoid excessive nitrogen fertiliser. Rapid, uninterrupted growth helps produce crisp, tender radishes.
6. Harvest.
   Pink Lady Slipper radishes typically mature approximately 25–34 days after sowing. Harvest while the roots are firm, crisp and at a useful eating size rather than leaving them unnecessarily long in hot conditions.
