Red radish variety Sudarushka is a medium-maturing, high-yielding vegetable with a vegetation period of 25 to 35 days from germination to technical maturity. The roots are round, smooth-surfaced, and white, weighing between 40 to 60 grams each. The radish flesh is dense, juicy, tender, snow-white, and has a pleasant sweet-spicy flavor. This variety is distinguished by its high marketability, resistance to cracking, and attractive appearance, making it popular among gardeners and farmers.
Sudarushka is a cold-resistant, long-day crop, allowing it to be grown at the earliest spring dates and harvested until late autumn, including the possibility of two harvests from a single area. Seeds are sown in several stages: starting from the beginning of field work, with intervals of 8-10 days until mid-May, and also in July-August for autumn harvest. Successful cultivation requires care, including formation of optimal planting density, weed control, loosening of rows, timely watering, and harvesting. Overcrowded plantings and soil drying can lead to premature bolting of radish.
Sudarushka radish is valued not only for its taste qualities but also for its high content of vitamins (A, B, C), mineral salts, essential oils, and enzymes that aid digestion. It is rich in fiber, important for gastrointestinal health, and possesses beneficial properties for cold illnesses, alleviating cough symptoms. Due to these characteristics, Sudarushka radish is an excellent addition to daily diet, supplying the body with necessary nutrients.
