Re: beet seed, I'm probably wrong

Oh, I hope they do alright. I have a full flat of Bright Lights planted,
because I can't direct sow as the snails will mow them down and the
decollate snails aren't plentiful enough to eat the  brown European snails
yet. But, yes, now that I think of it, I've bought ruby chard at Home Depot
and planted them and it does beautifully.
