Prefer a rich soil enriched with manure & seaweed to obtain beautiful beets. Thin out your plants as soon as the first leaves appear in order to keep only the most vigorous plants. Remember to water regularly in light rain & please water abundantly in dry periods. Beets keep better in the ground than in the refrigerator, so it is better to harvest your vegetables as you need them. Lot Of 250 Seeds Detroit Red Beetroot 2
