        Sowing time: Sow Tillage radish seed from mid-July up until 15 September if sowing for ACRES

        Frost tolerance: Poor – frost will help decay Tillage radish and thus avoid the requirement for chemical spray

        Pests & diseases: Generally not a problem, but clubroot could become an issue if brassicas are used as a catch crop over a period of years.
