Beetroot 'Bikores'

Try to plant in a location that enjoys full sun and remember to water moderately. Bikores is generally regarded as a half hardy plant, so it will need protecting in periods of cold weather. Bikores needs a loamy soil with a ph of 6.5 to 7.0 (weakly acidic soil to neutral soil).

Aim to sow 0.78 inches (2.0 cm) deep and try to ensure a gap of at least 5.85 inches (15.0 cm). For optimal germination, soil temperature should be a minimum of 13°C / 55°F.

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

Bikores is half hardy, so ensure you wait until all danger of frost has passed in your area before considering planting outside.
