I wish you had walked us through while they were growing. I kinda understand how to transplant what I’ve grown based on your verbal description but I still have some questions about how I know where to separate them and how much of the red roots should be covered in soil

I'll try to film some more

I forgot I wanted to ask you after I harvested the beads. How long would they be good for and is there a way I can keep them longer because I harvested quite a bit any suggestions and should I cut off their leaves or no?

👋 Hi @janeschade7875, Great question! Generally, beets can last in the fridge for up to 2-3 weeks. To keep them fresh longer, store them in airtight containers with a damp paper towel. Try to keep the leaves attached, as they can help keep the beets fresh. Hope this helps! 🌱🍅🥗

New Gardner here I wanna know in a big container. I have, I’ve noticed that there’s sections where no beats have come through. I want to know if I can put in more beet seeds to that container?

👋 Hello @janeschade7875! It's great to hear that you're starting your vegetable gardening journey. 🌱 As for your beet seeds, it's definitely possible to add more seeds to the areas where no beats have come through. 💡 Just make sure to thin out the seedlings as they grow, so they have enough space to thrive. Good luck with your container garden! 🍅🥦🌶️

I’m wondering since you’ve helped me so far this year if I’ve made a mistake so I pulled some beets out and some were really small but they were above the dirt so do you think that’s all the size they were gonna get or when they’re like that should I have continued to let them growand then the other question I have is when I see big leaves, but I don’t see anything above ground like the size of a golf ball. Should I leave those alone in the bucket?

👋 Hi @janeschade7875! Great question! If your beets were small and already above the soil, chances are that was their final size. As for the big leaves and nothing above ground, it could be that the beets are still growing underground. I would suggest leaving them in the bucket for a little while longer to see if they continue to grow. 🌱🥕

So if a beet is on top of the soil I should just yank it?

Also The leaves are my favorite! What’s the cheapest way for nitrogen. The bone meal is for the roots, does like or blood meal for for the nitrogen?

What percentage of Pete Moss vermiculite perlite and organic matter compost goes in the bucket. I’m a brand new gardener and last year. I got no beats only leaves. I’m in zone 7A.

👋 Hey there, @janeschade7875! As a general rule for container gardening, you can mix equal parts peat moss, vermiculite, and compost, with a bit of perlite (around 10-20%) for extra drainage. However, it's also important to consider the specific needs of the plants you're growing. For example, beets prefer a slightly alkaline soil, so adding lime may be helpful. And don't forget about proper watering and sunlight! Good luck with your gardening this year! 🌿🍅🌶️🥕🥬👍

Thank you I hope I get beets this year🤞🤞🤞

Should I wet down all the soil before I put the beet seeds in it and also I put the seeds in a bowl of water is it 24 hours? I need to let them sit in there or would like 16 hours work ?

@GreenThumbGardener

👋Hey there! Great question! It's actually not necessary to wet down all the soil before planting beet seeds. As for soaking the seeds, a 24-hour soak time is ideal but 16 hours should work too. Happy planting!🌱🌻🥕

I am a brand new gardener and I just harvested my beats from containers and I wanna know because it’s still plenty of time that I can plant more beats. Can I use the same containers or no?

👋 Hi @janeschade7875! Congrats on your beet harvest, that's awesome! 🌿 As for planting more beets, you can definitely use the same containers as long as you refresh the soil and give it some compost or fertilizer. 🌱 Best of luck with your next batch of beets! 🍀
