Early Wonder Organic Beet Seeds 4015. Heirloom Vegetable.

Approx. 170 seeds/pkt (60 seeds/gram)

Elongated roots are slightly flattened, semi-globe shaped with a smooth skin and solid flesh. Flesh is very sweet and tender with excellent uniformity and interior quality. Early Wonder comes up very quickly – even in cool soil. The tops make very good early season beet greens. Introduced around 1911.

How to Grow

Sow seed directly into the garden 1.25 cm deep in rows 30-45 cm apart. Successive sowings as late as the first of July helps extend the harvest. Beets produce a compound seed which means each seed can produce up to 4 sprouts so thinning is essential for good root formation – thin seedlings to 10 cm apart – you can use the tops of thinned beets as a source of baby greens. Irrigation is important during dry spells up until the roots begin to swell. Fertilizer improves quality and size of roots. Germination occurs in 7-10 days.
