Beets seeds are abnormally shaped seed, which contributes to why its preferred medium is soil. Their root systems also require a bit more room to explore and grab hold.

Keep covered with the blackout dome for up to five days. After that, place under a growlight until mature! Cut close to the soil line to feature the red stem.
