(Beta vulgaris) 52-60 days.       A 1957 All-American Selections Winner, the Ruby Queen Beet produces exceptionally sweet dark red beets. The canning industry’s favorite for years, it’s smooth buttery flavor is sure to please. Ruby Queen is a very reliable variety for home gardeners and market growers alike. Performs well in poor soil and holds its shape well in crowded spaces.

Planting Instructions for Ruby Queen Beet Seeds

Heirloom / Open Pollinated Ruby Queen Beets are usually direct seeded. Plant beet seeds in full sun, when the soil has warmed in Spring, ½” deep, 1″ apart, in rows 12-16″ apart. Germination occurs in 5-17 days in soil 55-70°F. When the beets start to come up, thin to 3-4″. Keep well watered, especially during root development. Harvest beet greens when they are young for the best flavor. Harvest beet root when 1-3″ across. Heirloom Beets keep for a long time when stored in moist sand.

    Nice packaging and good information. I have good germination and as long as the pests leave them alone I will have some nice beets!

    I was exceptionally happy with both of my orders from St Clare seeds. The shipping was fast, the seeds are very high quality, and my garden is growing amazingly well and already producing a harvest. 10/10 recommend them for all of your seeds. I can’t wait to plant more seeds, and try some new varieties.

    Not as flavorful as old favorite Detroit Red. Grew well, but less sweet and tasty cooked fresh or canned.
