GROWING BEET

It's too hot to grow beet on my home garden I think.
The growth of these plants were so slow.


Here in Indonesia, beet is only grown on the high land with a very cool weather along the year.
This is a minor vegetables here.


We can find it grown on some highland more than 1000 meters from the sea level.
The best result on growing beet on my garden was about 2 cm on diameter.
That was too small...


Never stop trying...
Stay growing...
Keep Learning....

    That's a shame, is there something else you could grow in its place?

      Yes, there is. I think tropical plants much better for my garden.

    I always grow beet, Endah. I love this vegetable and we cook traditional beet soup. I see your seedlings are small now, I prefer to feed them with carbamide, it grows faster.

    Do you eat the young leaves as we sometimes add them to salads?

      Memang butuh ketelatenan, jika bakal umbi mulai muncul di permukaan, perlu dibumbun biar tidak sampai pecah/cracking.

    That is the good thing about gardening - there is always something new to learn and something else to try! What will you grow instead Endah ?

    Endah Hallo!
    I love beets. It's a great vegetable.
    I cook them with horseradish and vinegar.
    They are delicious.
    I hope, however, your beets grow and you will have a harvest.
    Greetings.
