Beetroot 'Sweet Red Bliss'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Keep in mind when planting that Sweet Red Bliss is thought of as half hardy, so it will need cloching or fleece protection when the temperature dips. Sweet Red Bliss needs a loamy soil with a ph of 6.5 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil to neutral soil).

Look to ensure a distance 5.85 inches (15.0 cm) between seeds when sowing - bury at a depth of at least 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) deep. Soil temperature should be kept higher than 13°C / 55°F to ensure good germination.

By our calculations, you should look at sowing Sweet Red Bliss about 14 days before your last frost date.

Ensure that temperatures are mild and all chance of frost has passed before planting out, as Sweet Red Bliss is a half hardy plant.
