Packet = 200 seedsGardening Guide:
- Starting - Sow seeds 1cm (½”) deep, 5-10cm (2-4″) apart in rows 30-45cm (12-18″) apart.
- Timing - Direct sow 4 weeks after last frost to mid-summer. Beets will not produce roots if planted when the soil is too cold. Optimal soil temperature: 10-26°C (50-80°F). Seeds will germinate in 5-12 days, depending on soil temperature.
- Exposure - Full sun or partial shade.
- Harvest - Harvest at any size, but for the best flavour, pull the beets as soon as they have reached full-size. The leafy green tops are edible and very healthy too.
