SaiSai Radish microgreens are different than other radishes. Specifically, the stems and leaves are not hairy and prickly like other radishes.
This provides many advantages; they can keep them in trays longer, extending the harvest period.
You can also grow these radishes into the baby leaf stage and use them in salads or stir-fries.
As the radish microgreens mature, the stems become scarlet red and are very attractive. SaiSai radishes are probably the reddish color of all the radishes.
Radish microgreens are quick to germinate and are vigorous growers. They quickly reach 3- to 4-inches in height and are ready to harvest in 6- to 10-days.
SaiSai Radish microgreens have dark-green leaves that are attractively lobed, with the stems turning from pinkish-purple to scarlet red as they mature.
