Soil Preparation: Golden beets thrive in rich, well-drained soil. Add compost to improve soil structure and fertility.
Planting: Direct sow seeds 1/2 inch deep outdoors after the danger of frost has passed, or plant 3-4 weeks earlier in cooler climates for a head start.
Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during germination. Beets require regular watering to develop tender, sweet roots.
Thinning: Thin seedlings to about 4–6 inches apart to give each root ample space to grow and mature properly.
Fertilizing: Use an organic fertilizer with a balanced nutrient profile, being mindful of overfeeding with nitrogen, as it can affect root development.
Harvesting: Golden beets are typically ready to harvest in 50–60 days when they reach 2–3 inches in diameter. Harvest earlier for smaller, tender beets or wait for larger roots.
