Propagation by seed
From Early Spring TO Mid Summer
Beetroot seeds can be sown any time from early Spring to mid Summer. Make a shallow trench in manured soil and either sow the seeds in pairs every 4", and then remove the weakest of the pair when they are about 2" high, or sow more thickly, and, when the plants are the size of golf balls, thin to leave one plant every 4", and use the thinnings in salads. Sow every 4 weeks for a succession of crops. Make an earlier start by sowing in the greenhouse in late Winter, and planting out in early Spring
Planting
From Early Spring TO Mid Spring
Plant out seedlings grown in the greenhouse into well-manured soil, in rows 12" apart, and the plants 4" apart.
