Growing Directions:
Grow only in soil or cocopeat. Beets seeds are abnormally shaped seeds, which contributes to why their preferred medium is soil or cocopeat. Their root systems require a bit more room to explore and grab hold. Prepare your soil or cocopeat in the growing tray by tamping it and making sure it is moist. after pre-soak, sow your seeds and then cover with a thin layer of soil or cocopeat. This provides the ideal conditions for the seeds to germinate. After a while, the beets will start to poke through the top layer—which also serves to de-shell the seed. Keep covered with the tray lid for up to five days. After that, place under a grow light until mature! Cut close to the soil line to feature the red stem.
