Advice from our agronomist
When to sow. Sow directly in the bed from late April to late May, once the soil has warmed to at least 8 °C; seed tape is convenient: no thinning needed.
Sowing. Lay the tape in a furrow 2 cm deep, cover with soil and water; furrow spacing 30 cm. Choose a sunny spot with loose, neutral soil.
Care. Water evenly, especially in dry weather; loosen between rows and mulch. Beetroot needs boron – spray with a boric acid solution if necessary.
Feeding and harvest. Feed with a potassium-rich fertiliser, avoiding excess nitrogen. Harvest roots in September – early October before frost, twisting off the tops and leaving 2–3 cm of stalks; store in a cool, damp place.
