Pros and cons

According to our gardening experts

  • Easy to grow
  • Relatively free of pests and diseases
  • Can be sown multiple times for continued harvest
  • Does not store well outside the fridge
  • Growing large beets can be challenging

Beetroot is a cool-season crop. Plant seeds in early spring for a summer harvest or late summer for a fall harvest. They require consistent moisture, especially during germination and root development. Water regularly, ensuring the soil remains moist but not waterlogged.
