Radish—Winter Varieties Icicle Radish RADISH Winter Varieties These grow to large size, have firm hard flesh and can be kept in good condition for use all winter by packing the roots in moist sand or soil in a cool cellar before the ground freezes in the fall. To have them crisp and free from woodiness the seed should not be planted until late in the summer, as if planted too early the roots would be apt to become hard and woody before it is time to put them away in the fall. A good rule to follow is to sow the seed at the same time as you would seed for winter turnips, and where only a small supply is needed the seed could be sown in the same patch with the turnips.
