Growing tips

Germination in 14-21 days at 15-22°C. Between April and June, place the seeds in a 1 to 2 cm deep groove in the bed with moist, loose and humus soil. Then cover them again with soil, press them down a little and water well. Keep evenly moist. The beets can be harvested between July and October. They taste great raw or cooked in salads or as juice.
