Radishes Actually Grow Faster Indoors During The Winter Than You'd Expect - Tasting Table

"Growing your own vegetables is a fun and rewarding activity. Not only will you ensure they are at their freshest when you eat them, but you will also know how they are grown, especially if you care about pesticides and other harmful chemicals found in commercially grown produce. If you don't have an outdoor garden space, you can still grow some tasty veggies indoors - and some of the simplest (and fastest-growing) are radishes."

"Radishes are a great vegetable for aspiring gardeners, as they sprout quickly and are among the fastest vegetables to grow. They require only around six hours of sun a day, so a sunny windowsill will do just fine if you don't want to spend money on grow lights. The plants themselves are small, so you need very little space to grow a nice crop."

Radishes sprout quickly and are among the fastest vegetables to grow, making them ideal for beginners and small spaces. They require only around six hours of sun a day, so a sunny windowsill can replace grow lights. The plants are small and need very little space, about six inches of soil depth, loose soil, and regular watering. Radishes prefer cool weather and perform well as indoor winter crops or in countertop kitchen gardens using upcycled containers or regular pots. Fast-maturing varieties like Cherry Belle, French Breakfast, Sparkler, and Easter Egg yield harvests in as little as 24 to 40 days; watermelon radishes can take up to 65 days.
