Radishes: Not Just Fast-Growing Veggies
Radishes are known to sprout quickly—some within just five days—but they may do more than that. When planted densely across garden beds, their roots loosen up compact soil, creating more airflow and encouraging microbial activity underground.
Gardeners began reporting better growth in nearby plants, fewer weeds, and fewer pests—especially slugs and beetles, which seem to avoid the radish patches entirely. Some even noticed that their gardens smelled fresher.
But what really caught attention were the reports of unusual patterns—spiral root paths, glowing fungi, and in one case, a set of radishes that grew in perfect rows without ever being touched.
Coincidence? Or were the radishes reacting to something unseen?
