Seeds — Toraf beetroot D'Egypte, vegetable seeds, packet 10 g

Toraf beetroot D'Egypte vegetable seeds in a 10 g packet are intended for direct sowing in garden beds and allotments to produce table beets.

The compact packet size is designed for hobby gardeners and small-scale growers looking to plan sequential sowings across the season.

How to use

Sow Toraf D'Egypte seeds directly into prepared soil in a sunny or partly shaded location with well-draining, fertile soil. Sow seeds in rows at the recommended spacing for beet culture, cover lightly with soil and keep consistently moist until germination. Thin seedlings to maintain the required plant spacing so roots can develop uniformly. Follow local planting dates for your climate — spring sowings after the last frost and successive sowings into early summer for a staggered harvest. Harvest when roots reach the desired size; avoid leaving oversized roots in the ground to prevent woodiness.

Usage recommendations

Store unopened packets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain seed viability. For best results rotate sowing dates and ensure balanced soil nutrition; conduct a small soil test if necessary to adjust pH and fertility before sowing.
