| 50 days. Egyptian Flat is as good as its word -- these yummy little beets looked as though they've been given a quick flattening! Just 3 to 5 inches across, they're the perfect size to serve whole, where their disc-like shape can be admired by all! And they harvest so early that you'll be able to extend your season in both spring and fall! This plant is quite compact, reaching just 8 inches high. Equally suited for spring or fall harvest, it's ready in just 7 weeks, which means you'll get plenty in of extra harvest time! But the best thing about Egyptian Flat is the flavor. Very sweet, it as as delicious to eat as it is pretty to look at. Adaptable to sandy soil, it is a premium beet with a get-up-and-grow attitude you'll love! Beets are a cool-weather crop, direct-sown in fall or as soon as soil can be worked in spring. Before planting, make sure that the soil is as loose, rich, and well-drained as possible, so that the root can grow without stress. Pkt is 200 seeds, which sows 10 feet of row. |
