Growing tips

Red beets thrive in any soil and are very unpretentious, but protect from drought and night frosts. Sow in rows. Germination temperature: 18-20°C. Germination period: 5-10 days. Separate after the appearance of the 2nd leaf. When harvesting, twist off the leaves (use like chard), do not damage the tuber. Best sowing for storage fruits May/June.
