Growing Beetroot, also Beets

View the Beetroot page

18 Sep 25 Ethel (USA - Zone 10a climate)
I'm in 10A. I will be planting beetroot seed Chioggia and Detroit Red. Also (not in the same container but, along with Garlic Hard and Softneck) as an experiment for the first time. I will include where I purchased the items. And what I did along the way. If y'all would like to check back in 2026. I like this site and really like Mr Hutchinson's sense of humour. I will be on guard for the giant slugs and let you know, along with pictures. There's an ever slight possibility on the Golden Detroit that I'd be excited to see germination and maybe something of a mature beet. Current items are in the fridge.
