I love beet greens as well as spiral cut golden he’s in salad.
I think beets are susceptible o or on deficiency and they like higher ph. I haven had success with beets,lettuce,chard or spinach yet in NC and I think that’s the case with all these crops. I really need to send in a soul sample to check my soil but I also haven’t worked that hard at growing these crops yet,either since I’m just now figuring out the seasons and pest issues here. Much different than AZ issues.
I can’t wait to figure out the secrets here. I’m finally having some success with the kale,cabbage and summer stuff although I’m still working out the bug issues.
By the time I retire from working I’ll be a proficient NC gardener!
