Mr Fothergills Beetroot Detroit 2 Crimson Globe 150 Seed

Beetroot – Detroit 2 Crimson Globe

This is one of the most popular standard varieties. It is heavy yielding with very good taste.

Sow outdoors thinly, from April to July, where they are to crop, 2.5cm deep, directly into finely-prepared, well-cultivated, fertile soil, which has already been watered. Allow 30cm between rows. Seedlings usually appear in 7-21 days. Thin seedlings to 10cm apart. Water well until plants are established. Regular sowings, made every three weeks, should ensure a continuous supply of young beets. Harvest from June to October.
