Growing Beetroot, also Beets

Didn't know boron/ borax were the same,but boron is an S5 keep away from children, corrective element produced by Manutec , so you are probably right and a bit richer than me.Should be available at most nurseries and is quite costly. My 500 gram purchase will see me out though. Apply at rate of 5g per litre of water. The beets I planted and watered in with mixture are booming despite the flooding they copped last week Cheers and Happy Gardening folks from Steve
