Give plants at least 1 inch of water a week, and maintain a regular schedule; uneven watering can result in dry, cracked roots. As water will give you the sweet beets that you have been waiting for. Once plants are established, mulch with compost to conserve moisture and deter weeds.
Encourage rapid growth as a key, along with even moisture, to sweet-flavored beets by feeding.
**The leaves of the beets are completely edible. Can be used in a tossed salad or cooked for a wonderful warm dish.
