What you need to know to Plant & Grow
Sow seeds directly into the garden for best results.
Planting: Plant seeds 1.25 cm deep in rows 30-45 cm apart. Successive sowings as late as the first of July will help you extend your harvest. Germination occurs in 1-2 weeks.
Care: Beets produce a compound seed, so each one can yield up to four sprouts. Thinning is essential for proper root formation. Thin your seedlings to 10 cm apart, and enjoy the tops as a source of tender baby greens. Ensure your plants receive consistent water during dry spells, especially as the roots begin to swell. Fertilizing will help improve the size and quality of your harvest.
