in simple the answer is YES. raphanus sativus is actually the name of most of the radish family that we know are edible. I plant in rows approximately 175mm apart, and try to space your seeds roughly 25 mm (1 inch) apart and about 10mm deep in the soil. you will find sparkler cherry belle long scarlet and many others also have the raphanus sativus name

Can you eat the leaves of radish? I don't fertilise but have poor root development. Probably too much nitrogen in the compost that I forked through before planting.

Radish usually show up in 5-10 days. Maybe too much water? No need for water every day if the soil is wet enough to stay together in a lump if you squeeze it in your hand. Try some more seed and less watering.

I started my radishes in seedling trays and when they started to bulge at the root I planted the between my tomatoes. With love and water I now have small cherry radishes about 2 weeks off being pulled.

The leaves are delicious in stir fries, omelettes, stews etc.
