Description: Early Wonder Beet Seeds | Fresh Garden Seeds Early Wonder beets are a variety of beet that is known for its early maturity and sweet taste. They are typically ready to harvest about 50-55 days after planting, which is earlier than many other beet varieties. They have a deep red color and a round, uniform shape. They are often used for fresh eating, canning, and pickling. The greens are also edible and can be used in salads or sautéed as a side dish. They are a cool-season crop and are typically planted in the spring or fall. To grow Early Wonder beets, you will need to start by preparing your soil. Beets prefer a well-drained, rich soil with a pH between 6.0 and 6.8. If your soil is heavy or clay-like, you may want to amend it with compost or well-rotted manure to improve drainage and add nutrients. You can then direct sow the seeds in the soil, about 1/4 to 1/2 inches deep, 2-3 inches apart in rows about 1-2 feet apart. Keep the soil moist but not waterlogged. Once the seedlings emerge, thin them to 3-4 inches apart. Beets require consistent moisture throughout the growing season to prevent bolting, which is when the plant sends up a seed stalk and the root becomes woody and inedible. Be sure to water them well during dry periods, keeping the soil consistently moist. Beets are also a heavy feeder crop, so you may want to side-dress them with compost or a balanced fertilizer when they are about 3 inches tall. Finally, be sure to keep an eye out for pests and diseases, such as aphids, flea beetles, and leaf spot, which can damage your plants and reduce yields. You can harvest the beets when they reach the desired size, usually about 2-3 inches in diameter. They will be ready for harvest about 50-55 days after planting.
