{"product_id":"touchstone-beet-50-seeds","title":"Touchstone Beet – 50 Seeds","description":"\u003cp\u003eBrighten up your garden and your plate with the Touchstone Gold Beet. This refined heirloom is a favorite of growers for its reliable germination and beautiful, uniformly round, golden-yellow roots. It has a wonderfully sweet and mild flavor, lacking the strong earthiness of red beets, and its golden color won't bleed or stain when cooked. The attractive green tops are also delicious and can be used just like chard or spinach, making this a fantastic dual-purpose vegetable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you'll love\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeautiful, vibrant golden roots that won't bleed color when cooked.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA sweet and mild flavor that is a favorite for roasting and salads.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA dual-purpose vegetable—enjoy both the golden root and the nutritious greens.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA reliable and uniform grower, prized for its excellent germination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSeed details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Touchstone Gold Beet (Beta vulgaris)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeed Quantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 25 seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heirloom, Open Pollinated, Non-GMO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLifecycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Biennial, grown as an annual.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 12-18 inch tops\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDays to Maturity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 55-60 days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUSDA Zone:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e American Grown\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eGrowing instructions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSowing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Direct sow outdoors as soon as the soil can be worked in spring, or in mid-summer for a fall crop.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoaking:\u003c\/strong\u003e Soaking seeds in water for 2 hours before planting can aid germination.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDepth:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plant seeds 1 inch deep.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpacing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Each beet \"seed\" is a cluster of several seeds.
