Hydrothermal nanosilica in the agrotechnology of radish cultivated in the conditions of low positive temperature

The principal possibility to cultivate radish in open ground in autumn is tested. Hydrothermal nanosilica applied as topdressing have been used to increase plant adaptability to low positive temperature. Small-scale trials were carried out in the Moscow region in 2017. Marketable radish yield of 1.2 kg/m² (‘Mercado’) or 2.5 kg/m² (‘Carmen’) is obtained.
