Raphanus sativus

Tonight I planted heirloom "Cherry Belle" radish seeds.  The claim on the packet is that they will be ready to eat in 24 days!  I can only hope it's true.  I considered switching to a dedicated seed germinating soil, which is supposed to be free of chunkier pieces of soil and additional nutrients, but I only saw it available in large bags so decided to take my chances with normal potting soil.  If I'm not getting good results in another week then I'll reconsider.  If the radishes do well, I can plant them again in the fall due to their quick turnaround time.

Also, and this is a bit off topic, but I had some delicious cabbage korma for dinner and felt inspired to try growing my own cabbage next winter.
