Sowing Outdoors
Sow seeds thinly, about 2cm (1in) apart in pre-watered shallow rows, and cover with a little soil. Allow about 30cm (12in) between rows.
As seedlings develop, thin them to about 10cm (4in) apart. Keep soil moist at all times to prevent roots becoming dry and woody.
Special note
Twist the tops off the roots rather than cut them. This prevents bleeding.
To produce baby beets, thin seedlings to just 5cm (2in) apart and pull them when they are about the size of a golf ball.
