What you need to know to Plant & Grow

Beets thrive in sandy loam with a pH of 6.0 to 7.5.

Planting:For a continuous harvest, sow seeds 1.2 cm deep and 2.5 cm apart in two-week intervals, beginning when the soil has warmed to 7C.Avoid sowing after mid-July.Germination takes 8-10 days.

Care:As each beet seed contains 2 to 5 seeds within, it is important to thin the young seedlings to 710 cm apart to provide enough room for proper root formation.The thinned plants can be used as a source of tender, edible greens.Remember to fertilize. Over-watering or excessive rainfall may lead to excessive leaf growth and small roots.One packet sows approximately 6 m of row.

Approx. 300 seeds/pkt
