CORVALLIS-Beets are best planted as early as you can get into your garden, starting in March or April, about two to four weeks before the last killing frost in your area. Plant beets successively at three to four-week intervals into July and you will have a continuous supply of fresh, tender beets until autumn. Beet seeds are best planted an inch or two apart, in rows 12 to 18 inches apart. Each seed is actually a dried fruit or seed ball, containing several tiny true seeds.
Sugar beets are primarily grown as a commercial crop, but are also well-suited to the home garden. They take up very little space in beds. The sugary roots can be used in vegetable dishes as well as in home wine and molasses production. The leafy tops are often added to feed for livestock and add necessary fiber to the animal's diet. Plant beets in the spring for a late summer or early autumn harvest. Prepare a well-drained bed for planting. Work the soil at least 10 inches deep to give the beet root plenty of room to grow. Work compost into the soil to raise the bed three inches to improve drainage if necessary. Sow the seeds after danger of frost has passed in the spring. Sow each seed one-half inch deep and cover loosely with soil.
