This radish delivers results in a fast 10-15 days, a timeline that feels almost magical for gardeners accustomed to longer waits. The name says it all: each planting produces a confetti-like mix of colors rather than uniform roots, giving every harvest a festive, varied appearance. Johnny's describes it as easy, fast, and colorful, and that trifecta makes it a genuine crowd-pleaser whether you're growing in a greenhouse, on a windowsill, or in garden beds.
Confetti Radish is grown primarily as a microgreen crop and for fresh harvest as young radish roots. The catalog descriptions emphasize its use in greenhouse production and protected environments, where it's broadcast densely for quick turnover. Fresh radishes are typically sliced into salads, eaten raw as a crisp snack, or used as a colorful garnish. When grown as microgreens, they're harvested at the seedling stage, washed, and served fresh as a peppery, crunchy addition to salads and dishes.

Start Confetti Radish indoors in a greenhouse or protected area using potting mix or soilless medium in shallow trays or 20-row flats. Broadcast seed thickly across the media surface with seeds spaced 1/8 to 1/4 inch apart, press seeds firmly into the medium for maximum soil contact, and cover lightly with sowing mix, vermiculite, or a humidity dome. Follow brassica family germination guidelines for your specific growing setup.
Broadcast Confetti Radish seed directly into garden beds or containers, spacing seeds 1/8 to 1/4 inch apart and pressing them firmly into moist soil. Cover lightly with soil and keep consistently moist until germination and emergence.
Harvest Confetti Radish microgreens when they reach desired size and color, typically within 10-15 days of sowing. For full radish roots, harvest when they reach young, tender maturity. Wash microgreens thoroughly before serving. Use clean shears or a knife to cut microgreens just above the soil or growing medium.
