This page is our Beet Home Page. It is an index to all of our pages on growing, harvesting, cooking and freezing beets.
Our first page starts with
Growing Beets from Seeds
where we talk about the Moneta F1. We sowed this directly in the soil. Actually the only way to grow beets is from seed.
Then we have
Growing Beets in Flats
where we started some seeds in pots. I did not think this could be done but it can be done. Carrots is a vegetable that cannot be started and transplanted.
Our page on
Growing Beets
where we focus on the Detroit Supreme. At first it looked like the beets just were not doing very well because I did not have them in a place to get enough sunlight. But then they took off as it warmed up and they got more light.
We have posted a page on
How to Grow Beets
where we focus on growing the Moneta in a greenhouse. We harvested some excellent sized beets.
Then we show how to process the beets at
How to Cook Beets
where we talk about cooking, freezing and eating our home grown beets.
We have a page on
Nutritional Value of Beets
where we talk about how good beets are for us to include the beet juice.
