Fall Planting Full Moon

Hooray! It's a full moon tonight. And, Sh'mal tells me he's already gotten a head start on Fall planting in his garden in Seattle.

Here's what the Daikon radish looked like last year when Sh'mal first gave me his plot at McRorie Garden in Gainesville.

We collected some seeds. Sh'mal said he'd been planting these seeds for years.

This is Sh'mal the day I met him. We were talking about these Daikon seeds that day!

They grew into large Daikons Radishes. I just started germinating some.

So, here's today's batch of seeds from last year.

And, here they are in a plastic container, ready to germinate. This article has a good description of how to do it. But, basically, put some seeds on a damp towel in a warm, dimly lit place. Wait a little while and they'll sprout.
