Ideal for eating fresh, canning, freezing and pickling.
Young leaves make delicious greens.
Can be stored for winter use. Space rows 12 to 18 inches apart or plant seeds 4 inches apart in all directions in beds. Thin to 3 inches apart when seedlings are a few inches high and enjoy the removed young greens in a salad. Keep soil moderately moist during germination. Beets prefer light, sandy loam-type soil.
