Care Instructions:

• Sowing: Sow seeds thinly outdoors from March to July in well-prepared, stone-free soil. Sow 1cm deep in drills spaced 30cm apart.
• Thinning: Once seedlings are large enough to handle, thin them to 10cm apart to allow the globe roots sufficient room to expand.
• Watering: Maintain consistent moisture throughout the growing season to ensure the roots remain tender and do not become woody.
• Soil Preference: Thrives in a sunny position in fertile, well-drained soil. Avoid freshly manured ground to prevent the roots from forking.
• Harvesting: Pull individual roots as required from June to October. Harvest as baby beets at the size of a golf ball for the most delicate flavour.
