Vegetable Seeds - A - E

Beetroot Rhonda F1 seeds provide plants that produce a very high sugar content and gives a wonderfully sweet flavour. Rhonda F1 provides uniform beets with tender quality flesh and are an excellent source of folate and a good source of potassium.

To Sow and Grow

Sow outdoors thinly where they are to crop, 2.5cm (1") deep, directly into finely prepared soil which has already been watered. Allow 30cm (1') between rows.

Seedlings usually appear within 7-21 days. Thin seedlings to 10cm (4") apart or 5cm (2") apart for baby beet. Water well until the plants are established. Regular sowings made every three weeks should ensure a continuous supply of young beets.

Harvested roots can be stored in dry sand for winter use.
