Beetroot sprouting

Germination: 6-8 days depending on growing conditions

Tips: Make sure your soaking water is slightly warm, or at the very least kept at room temperature (especially if weather conditions are cold) as cold water may shock the seeds. Ensure your rinsing water is also not too cold as cold water may slow down the germination process. We recommend keeping the seeds in a warm place while they sprout too. And don't harvest too soon: they can take anywhere from 6 to 12 days.
