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.
Last year I decided to plant a "tunnel" of sunflowers on the other side of my tall blueberry bushes and these added a colorful variety to the typical yellow! These are now a favorite that will be a "grow again!"
I received a packet of this mix with a previous greenstalk order through MIgardener (best price around!) and was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to grow and how delicious it was! I’ve never grown salad greens before and this was the perfect mix. Even after burning out on gardening late in the summer, I will always look forward to growing this salad green mix in the spring. Thanks for introducing me!
Our banana peppers arrived fairly quickly, even though there was a winter storm in Michigan.
I'm sure they will do well, as most seeds from Migardener do well.
I’ve been growing these for multiple years now. I love all the little surprises that come up. I have quite a collection of cactus plants now, thanks to these seed packets.
Excellent germination! Excellent packaging! Probably jumped the gun a bit but only planted 6 seeds for now!
