Non-GMO. Every lot is germination-tested here before it goes on sale.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrow your own Cylindra beet — the long, cylindrical Danish heirloom that gives you a dozen even, coin-sized slices from one root instead of a handful of odd-shaped ones. It grows upward as much as down, so it crowds in well and needs less depth. Sweet, tender and ideal for pickling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdetails open=\"\"\u003e\n\u003csummary style=\"cursor: pointer; font-weight: 600; margin: 4px 0 8px;\"\u003eGrowing guide \u0026amp; FAQs\u003c\/summary\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eGrowing guide for Pakistan\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhen to sow:\u003c\/strong\u003e September to November across the plains. This is a cool-season root and it sweetens as the nights turn cold. Hill areas sow March to June.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSowing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Always sow direct — a root transplanted is a root forked. Scatter thinly in shallow drills 1 cm deep, rows 25–30 cm apart, and firm the soil gently over them.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep, loose, stone-free ground dug a spade deep. Fresh manure forks and hairs the roots, so use only well-rotted compost, or follow a crop that was manured last season.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThinning:\u003c\/strong\u003e The step most gardeners skip and then regret. Thin to 4–5 cm apart once the seedlings are a few centimetres high. Crowded roots stay thin and woody.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater:\u003c\/strong\u003e Even moisture throughout. A dry spell followed by a heavy watering is what splits the roots.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lift young for tenderness or leave longer for size.
