Golden beets are known for being extra sweet and less \"earthy\" than their red counterparts. Grown alongside red, white, and candy-striped beets, your harvest will create a playful plate of color at the table. Improved germination and performance over other golden cultivars. Best at 1\"–3\" round.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDays to Maturity:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e85–90 Days\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFamily:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAmaranthaceae\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eType:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eBeet \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eNative:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEurope, Asia, and the Mediterranean region\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFrost-tolerant biennial grown as an annual\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eExposure:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFull sun\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePlant Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLeaf tops are 12\"-18\" tall.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVariety Info:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eGolden, globe-shaped roots up to 3\" in diameter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAttributes:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFrost Tolerant\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhen to Sow Outside:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eRECOMMENDED. 2 to 4 weeks before your average last frost date, when soil temperature is at least 45°F, ideally 60°–85°F, for early summer crop. 6 to 8 weeks before your average first fall frost date for late summer\/fall crop.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eMild Climates:\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSow fall through winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eWhen to Start Inside:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eNot recommended.

For late summer sowings, harvest before first heavy freeze. For winter sowings in mild climates, harvest in early spring. Harvest when roots are anywhere from 1\"–3\" in diameter. The smaller they are, the more tender. Greens are most tender when small, so start harvesting when they are 2\" tall. You can take as much as one third of a beet plant's outer leaves without harming the root crop.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShop with confidence when you shop at Southern Agriculture.
