Growing sugar beets offers a rewarding experience for gardeners and farmers alike. These beets, maturing in 90-100 days, are prized for their high sugar content, making them ideal for home sugar production and animal feed. Sugar Beetroots are not a typical beet; they have a very large white and tapered root that can weigh up to 1 foot long and 3-5 pounds apiece. They are very frost tolerant. Their tops can grow 1-2' tall and can be eaten, lightly grazed, or fed to animals.
They germinated quickly and are growing well. Very pleased!
As always I am impressed with MIG quality of seeds. embarking on a new adventure of home grown sweetener next summer after we grow these. Love a veggie with multiple uses that allows us to be more self sustainable!
Preparedness, and stocking up my own sugar source! I can dehydrate and store for years. Organic and grown myself. I’m very excited to have this seed packet.
I direct sowed in Sept. No germination. Could be my error
I haven’t planted these yet, but all my seeds from this past season germinated and were healthy plants. I’m sure this nexts years batch will be the same. I’m excited to plant these.
Grew these for the past three years and I will keep growing them for many more. I highly recommend them. Great germination rate. Every onion grew to the size of baseballs and others a bit bigger and they store very well.Best long day onion I have ever grow.
I am very happy with my heirloom seeds. I cannot wait to germinate them.
Started my seeds on 12/31/25. I’ve had almost 100% germination and the onion seedlings are a couple of inches tall at this point (1/9/26). Looking forward to a great harvest!
Grew these last year, so I bought more seeds! they were awesome, very prolific and tasted great!!
I started them early....did waterjug winter seed starts .. they did very well....grew up to be nice sturdy plants, bearing lots of fruit! Thank You!!
