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 7°C. Avoid sowing after mid-July.
Care: As each beet ‘seed’ contains 2 to 5 seeds, it is important to thin the young seedlings to 7-10 cm apart to allow for proper root formation. The thinned plants can be used as a source of tender, edible greens. Remember to fertilize throughout the season. Over-watering or excessive rainfall may lead to excessive leaf growth and small roots. One packet sows approximately 6 m of row. Germination occurs in 7-10 days.
