Growing Radish without Soil using Simplified Hydroponics in Mangalore by Pritham D'Souza
Radish being a root crop requires adequate spacing for root development. pic taken 13 nov 2009
close up of radish seedling, which germinated within 4 days of sowing
since it is a root crop, NO TRANSPLANTING is done. so the container chosen should have sufficient depth
26 days later pic taken on 9 Dec 2009, also brahmi root stem planted next to growing radish
another view of Luxuriant radish growth
Dec 25, 2009, even though the leaves are ready for harvest, i decided to keep it for a few more days
the best part in simplified hydroponics is the portability of the gardens. here you can see my radish tub placed in my kitchen

Totally useless blog. Doesn't say WHAT and HOW he did, only the result. It's the typical ego-trip that HE CAN Do It.
