Day 70

Today I will be taking the beets home to plant them in my garden. I made sure the beets were very wet before putting them in the ground. When I did plant them in the ground I planted them about 3 inches deep including the soil it was already in. I wanted to make sure the stems had lots of support so they wouldn't break in the wind. Since the tray was too wide for the garden rows I cut down the middle of the tray with an equal about of beets on each side. Then placed them length ways in the garden.

Day 68

The height of the beets is 24 cm tall. The soil was dry so I watered them. On beets there won't be any flowers nor will I be able to see the beets growing.

Day 66

I had to water the beets a lot because I won't be able to water them over the weekend I didn't water the beets the day before because they were still wet. There are about 40 leaves in total and there are baby leaves starting to grow!

Day 64

There are really starting to grow they are also very healthy. There are about 40 leaves they soil was fairly dry so I watered them again. I will probably water them everyday now because if I don't water them they will probably die.

Day 62

After the weekend the soil was dry so I watered it a lot because I don't know if they were dry the two days of the weekend or they were just drying out Sunday
