- Soil requirements: Beetroot seeds prefer well-drained, loamy soil with a pH level between 6.0 and 7.5. The soil should be rich in organic matter and free from stones and debris to allow the roots to grow without obstruction.
- Sunlight needs: Beetroot seeds require full sun to partial shade. They thrive best in areas that receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily.
- Watering requirements: Beetroot seeds need consistent moisture, especially during germination and early growth stages. Water the seeds regularly to keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Reduce watering as the plants mature to prevent root rot.
- Planting season: The best season for planting beetroot seeds in tropical regions is during the cooler months, typically from late fall to early spring. This helps avoid the extreme heat that can stress the plants.
- Depth and spacing: Plant beetroot seeds at a depth of 1/2 inch (1.25 cm) and space them about 2-3 inches (5-7.5 cm) apart in rows that are 12-18 inches (30-45 cm) apart. Thin the seedlings to 4-6 inches (10-15 cm) apart once they are established.
- Germination time: Beetroot seeds typically germinate within 5-10 days under optimal conditions. Ensure the soil temperature is between 50°F and 85°F (10°C to 29°C) for best results.
- Maturity time: Beetroot plants usually reach maturity within 50-70 days after planting, depending on the variety and growing conditions.
- Harvesting time: The best time to harvest beetroot is in the early morning or late afternoon when temperatures are cooler. This helps maintain the freshness and quality of the roots.
- Harvesting tips: Use a garden fork or spade to gently lift the beetroot from the soil. Avoid damaging the roots during harvest. After harvesting, trim the leaves to about 1 inch (2.5 cm) above the root to prevent moisture loss. Store the harvested beetroot in a cool, dark place or refrigerate them to extend their shelf life.
