- Sow seeds early April-July. Sow in well prepared, fertile soil 13mm (½in) deep in broad drills, spacing seeds about 2cm (¾in) apart. Allow 25cm (10in) between drills. Beetroot also responds well to module sowing, sow 4 seeds per module, and transplant each module when 5cm (2in) tall, allowing 7-10cm (3-4in) between each plant.
- For baby roots, no thinning will be necessary. For larger roots, thin seedlings to 5cm (2in). Young leaves and stems can also be used as a spinach alternative.
- Prefers a moist, rich, well drained soil in cool conditions.
- Number of Seeds: 150
