About -

Enhance your garden with Richgrow Seeds Beet-Root RG 50 SPL. Open Pollinated Seeds, a nutritious, non-GMO variety (Beta vulgaris), perfect for Indian home gardeners and farmers seeking vibrant, deep red beetroots at an unbeatable price! Known as RG 50 SPL., this open-pollinated variety produces round, uniform roots, measuring 5–7 cm in diameter, with a rich, dark red color and sweet, earthy flesh, ideal for salads, juices, or roasting, ready to harvest in 55–65 days after sowing. Packed with folate, fiber, and antioxidants, these beetroots support heart health and detoxification, and their seeds can be saved for future planting. The compact, vigorous plants, reaching 25–35 cm tall, are resistant to pests like leaf miners and diseases such as downy mildew, thriving in cool to mild climates, with optimal sowing in early spring (February–March) or autumn (September–November) across Pan-India, especially in states like Punjab, Maharashtra, and Tamil Nadu.

Sow 2–3 seeds at a 1–1.5 cm depth in well-drained, fertile loamy soil (50% garden soil, 30% compost, 20% sand, pH 6.0–7.0) under full sun (6–8 hours daily), spacing 8–10 cm apart in rows 30–40 cm wide; achieve 85% germination within 5–8 days at 15–25°C. Maintain consistently moist soil with light watering (0.5–1 liter per plant every 2–3 days), avoiding waterlogging, and fertilize with organic compost or low-nitrogen fertilizer every 3 weeks; use neem oil or organic sprays for pests like aphids or flea beetles. Thin to one strong seedling per spot after 2 weeks for optimal root development. Harvest beetroots when they reach a firm, glossy texture, typically 50–60 days after germination, gently pulling from the soil, ensuring excellent storage in a cool, dry place for up to 4–5 weeks. Store unopened seed packets in a cool, dry place for up to 2 years.

Available in Kitchen Garden Packet (KGP) (50–100 seeds), Standard Packet, Professional Pack (150–200 grams), or custom bulk orders, all in eco-friendly, resealable, moisture-proof, UV-protected packets with an 85% germination rate, designed for your sustainable vision at www.richgrowindustrialcorporation.com, reflecting your eco-friendly, customer-centric brand with nature-inspired packaging (green, brown, white). Seed quantity may vary by variety. Note: Avoid over-fertilizing with nitrogen to prevent excessive leaf growth; harvest promptly for best flavor. Disclaimer: Yields and root quality vary by climate, soil, and care; consult local agricultural resources for optimal results.
