JAPANA F1
A Daikon for summer sowing. Roots are smooth skinned, white with a rounded end, measuring up 35 cm long. Flesh is fine and dense. The plants are fast growing and mature quickly. Because of its length JAPANA requires light, deep and well cultivated soils. Best sown in July through early August (in Central Europe). Not for spring sowing as it will bolt without forming a root. Roots keep well throughout the winter. Approximately 80 days from sowing to harvest (Central Europe).
JAROLA F1
A white radish with light shoulders. Pointed roots are 25 to 30 cm long and have a good internal structure. JAROLA is tolerant to bolting allowing early spring as well as summer sowings. Approximately 90 days from spring sowing and 80 days from summer sowing to harvest (Central Europe).
MELINORA (Daikon radish with bio drill effect.)
Long roots break line nature´s rototiller through hard, compacted soil. It mechanically opens up channels for water and roots to penetrate. Daikon radish MELINORA is natural reclamation for better using of precipitation and water ertention in the soil. It also has a phytosanitary effect - it suppresses the development of some types of soil nematodes and fungal pathogens. The roots contain a high proportion of sugars and promote the development of useful soil microorganisms. MELINORA captures significant amounts of nitrogen, phosphorus and other nutrients from the deeper soil layers and returns them to the root zone to succeeding crops.
