Here's my new Rain Barrel / Subterranean Irrigated Planter (SIP). It's about 4 ft X 8 ft. I planted Arugula and Roma tomatoes from seed but everything else were from the nursery. Got everything planted by 6/5/23.
This is my old raised planter behind the garage. Several kinds of leaf lettuce and radishes.
And here's my question. These radishes (from the nursery) are about 3 - 4 inches tall and they all have maybe 4 - 6 stalks each and I'm wondering when I should thin them out.

WiAG; I would say now is a good time! Thin to 3-4 inches on center. Water regularly, do not over fertilize, and do not allow to dry out.

Wow! That turned out great! I hope it works just as planned. Love the Marigold border. Useful and beautiful. :)
Yes, thin your radishes to one per every 2” or so. Pick the biggest one and pull the others around it.
