Title: French Breakfast.

Right I planted a few rows back in August, harvested these and had lovely red and white sausage shaped radishes. I immediately sowed the new seed in the rows vacated. However, when harvested I had all red carrot shaped radishes. What has happened here?

I thought I read somewhere, no doubt on here, you cannot plant them in the same place in succession?! we did and our second lots came out strange shapes and were very different tasting.

That might explain things, they look like and taste like an entirely different variety.
