Commonly Asked Questions
What is the best month to plant beetroot?
Beetroot seeds are best sown outdoors from late March or April through to July. For an earlier start, from late February, opt for bolt-resistant varieties and cover the row with fleece or cloches for protection against cold weather.
What is the secret to growing beetroot?
Beetroots thrive in sunny locations with moist yet well-drained soil rich in organic matter. To optimise growth, add well-rotted compost or manure to the soil before planting. This ensures the beets have the nutrients they need for a sweet and abundant harvest.
How do you look after beetroot plants?
To ensure tender and flavourful beetroots, keep the soil evenly moist by watering every 10-14 days during dry periods. Avoid letting the soil dry out or fluctuate excessively, as this can cause the roots to become woody or split.
How long does it take to grow beetroot?
Beetroot typically takes about 10 to 12 weeks to mature from the time of sowing. For the best flavour and texture, harvest them when they are about 50mm wide, although they can be left to grow until they reach the size of a small orange.
Can beetroot grow in pots?
Yes, beetroot can be successfully grown in pots, especially round varieties. Choose containers that are at least 20cm (8 inches) in diameter and depth, and fill with multi-purpose compost. This makes beetroot a versatile option for small gardens or urban spaces.
