An excellent resistance to bolting from an early sowing with the colour and the flesh as good as Detroit. Sweet fresh flavour. Crops in 59 Days.
Sowing Instructions. Sow from spring to early summer very thinly in drills 3cm (1in) deep in rows 30cm (12in) apart.
Growing Instructions. When the seedlings are large enough to handle thin them out gradually to 10cm (4in) apart. The later thinnings will be large enough to use in a salad. Pull the beetroot when the roots are 1½ in diameter or larger.
Aftercare Instructions. The smaller the root the better the quality. In mid autumn lift the remaining roots twist off the tops and use or store in a clamp as you would potatoes.
