Add raw young beet greens to salads for extra texture and flavor complexity, or try the leaves cooked similarly to Swiss Chard. Enjoy the bee root raw or cooked as a topping, or in any dish that calls for beets!
Check the roots monthly and trim any that are brown or extending past the yPod.
To harvest continuously, let them grow at least 6-8 inches tall before cutting them down to ~2 inches above the base. The harvested stalks are round and hollow, and they will regrow in 1-2 weeks.
