Do not be late to harvest beets. When the time for the harvest

My grandmother always said that beet autumn from small cold start typing sweets, so you can not hurry with the harvest. But missed the right time, too easy, hydrometeorological not always guess the weather accurately. Let's talk about how to understand whether the beets is ripe and when it is possible to pull out, and in some cases it is better to leave the beds even for a while.

Depending on the beet varieties frost can remain in the beds to a temperature dropping to minus 3 degrees. But I've never negative to not leave. I try to dig up if the forecast can see that night has five. For me this is a signal that the time to clean the beets.

Autumn is always unpredictable. It's that time of year when every cottager every day listening to the voice of the Hydrometeorological Center in order to understand, will not start if prolonged rains, early frosts and when will the Indian summer. From these data it depends on how promptly we will gather and store the harvest in the first place by rot. A temperature close to 0 for root vegetables in the beds can cause further decay during storage time in the next 2-3 months maturation.

The first signs of mature beets - a root size, leaf color change in September. If there was no drought, and the soil is moistened always in the right quantity, then a slight yellowing of some leaves can be a sign of maturity of the beets. Personally, I pull out a couple of pieces, to see if there are any growths. Sometimes there are small bright roots. If they were, then you need the entire harvest, otherwise begin to germinate and take root can be removed quickly.
