How to Sow
- Water soil before sowing to avoid disturbing the seeds once planted
- Create drills/trenches in your soil so the seeds are approx half and inch deep
- Sow seeds approx. 4 inches apart in rows approx. 12 inches apart
- Cover the seeds and gently pat down to firm the soil
- Seeds take approx. 2 weeks to germinate before seedlings appear through the soil
Plant Care
- After about 8 weeks, the plants should be approx. 8 inches tall, with the beginnings of the beetroots appearing on the surface of the soil
- Water regularly to keep the soil moist
AllotMe’s Tips
- Both the root vegetable and the leaves can be harvesting for eating
