Full Product Description

Beetroot (Beta vulgaris) belongs to the Amaranthaceae plant family. This popular healthy garden crop yields vivid crimson‑coloured underground bulbs. Its tender root can be eaten raw in salads, boiled, roasted or pickled, while nutrient‑rich leaves work as leafy greens for cooking.

All seeds go through repeated screening to remove shrivelled, broken and low‑viability grains, ensuring sturdy seedlings and well‑shaped rich‑red beetroot bulbs.

Packaging & Shipping Notes

Hard beetroot seeds are sealed inside thick moisture‑proof inner bags. Outer carton cushioning protects seeds from extrusion damage and grain loss during transit.

Keep packages away from high‑temperature enclosed storage, damp surroundings and prolonged direct sunlight. Reseal leftover seeds tightly and store in cool, dry and well‑ventilated zones.

Planting Guide

Best Sowing Season

Optimal sowing periods are early spring and cool autumn. Suitable growing temperature ranges 10℃‑22℃. Extreme summer heat will slow root development and trigger poor‑tasting bulbs.

Seed Pre‑Treatment

Soak seeds in room‑temperature clean water for 8‑12 hours
Discard floating inactive seeds
Soak seeds overnight to break the hard outer seed shell for faster sprouting

Soil Requirement

Clear stones and weeds, deeply loosen planting ground. Loose, fertile, well‑drained sandy‑loam with neutral soil is ideal. Heavy compacted soil will cause twisted and deformed beetroot bulbs. Avoid water‑logged planting land.

Sowing Operation

Bury seeds 0.8‑1.2 inches underground, leave proper row spacing and lightly compress top‑layer soil.

Germination & Seedling Care

Maintain steady mild soil moisture. Healthy seeds germinate within 5‑10 days under suitable conditions. Thin seedlings timely to reserve enough underground expansion room for root bulbs and perform routine weeding.

Daily‑care for Mature Plants

Grow under full‑sunshine conditions. Stable soil moisture helps plump round‑shaped root growth. Apply diluted potassium‑rich fertilizer during root‑bulb expanding stage. Harvest mature beetroot bulbs once they grow to ideal size.

Seed Storage & Package

Moisture‑proof sealed packaging guards seeds against dampness, mould and shipping‑caused damage.

Store spare seeds inside cool, dry, shaded and ventilated locations. Refrigerated storage supports long‑time preservation, keep seeds away from hot‑humid surroundings. Sow seeds within three‑month storage for optimum germination‑rate.
