It is mentioned in Austrian garden books as early as 1770 and was once widely cultivated in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The radish is used both raw in salads as well as cooked like turnips. It was also shredded and fermented with sauerkraut. The Hungarians stew it with peppers.

In frost free areas, sow in the fall. Space rows at least 6\" apart, and thin seedlings to 2-3\" apart within the row.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSeed keeping notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor seed saving, leave them in for 65-80 days until the pods fully dry and become crunchy\/crispy. Harvest the seedhead below the lowest ripe seed pods, and hang in a sunny, dry place if it needs to dry a little more. Thresh seed pods by pushing through screens, rubbing between your hands, or stomping in buckets. Sift out larger chaff and use wind, breath, or fans to winnow away the lighter weight chaff from the seed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bartram's Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32272954425479,"sku":"RAD-003","price":5.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2406\/3467\/products\/yradish20out20of20ground1.jpg?v=1580247145","url":"https:\/\/trueloveseeds.sbs\/products\/yellow-carrot-shaped-radish","provider":"Truelove Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
