Rodos

Rhodes radish is an ultra-early variety with a growing period of 18 to 25 days, allowing for harvest in short timeframes. This variety is suitable for cultivation in both open and closed ground, including film greenhouses, and successfully adapts to various agro-climatic conditions. Rhodes radish demonstrates high resistance to diseases and pests, as well as to root softening, ensuring stability and productivity during spring, summer, and autumn growing periods.

Rhodes radish roots have an oval shape and a bright red color with a smooth, shiny, thin skin. The fruit diameter varies from 3 to 5 cm, and the average weight ranges from 15 to 35 grams depending on growing conditions. The flesh is white, moderately dense, juicy, and tender, with a mildly pungent taste and slight sweetness. The radish is not prone to cracking or hollowing and maintains elasticity and market appearance after washing and storage in cool conditions.

Rhodes radish seeds have high germination rates, with a content of 90 to 130 seeds per gram, allowing for a recommended sowing rate of up to 250-270 seeds per square meter for optimal yield. Due to its taste qualities and nutritional value, this variety is widely used for preparing fresh salads and is an excellent source of vitamins and minerals.
