PLEASE NOTE: This is a seed packet

Provides contrast to red types, perfect with fish or poultry.
Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 2.5cm (1″) deep directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm (1′) between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Thin seedlings to 10cm (4″) apart. Water well until plants are established. Regular sowings made every three weeks should ensure a continuous supply of young beets. Harvested roots can be stored in dry sand for winter use.
Soil Type: Well cultivated, fertile soil
Hints: Young leaves are also edible and can be used raw or cooked like spinach
