i bought some sparkler3 radish seeds from wilkos today. Tomorrow (wednes) is my day off so usually the day when i get mostthings done (including updating the pictures for my blog!) but it has just occured to me, i'm not sure what sort of container to plant them in? shall i start them off in small pots? or shall i plant them in something larger and then leave them be? i thought i best ask now, or else it will keep me awake, wondering what to do!

Hi Hanna,
Not sure about sparkler but French Breakfast 3 indicates they will grow to about 3" long, therefore any container 5" deep. I like to plant about every 2 weeks 30 odd seeds to a pot (my pots are about 8" across. The seeds are quite large so I sow them individually spaced so when they are mature they nearly touch each other. They take about eight weeks from sowing to harvest so with four pots I have a continual supply of crisp fresh radish.
Hope this helps Colin.Potty by name Potty by nature.

thanks colin, the pics were a great help as usual! always helps for me to see what others have done, makes me feel better and helps to know we are heading in the right direction! today didnt really go to plan, the garden only got a 5minute visit as we have had some new french doors fitted in the kitchen, and it took alot longer than we thought...so i guess the new pics for the blog will have to wait! there just doesnt seem to enough hours in the day at the moment! Roll on Sunday! xhttp://seedsshootsandleaves.blogspot.com/
