    What's your favourite beetroot?

    I grew rainbow beet this year but was not keen on the white beets so it was a bit of a waste.
    I have really enjoyed pickling the red beets though, so I wondered what you guys recommend/have as a favourite.

    I like cylindra for the flavour, golden are pretty but the taste is milder.

          Boltardy and Cylindra for me. Boring, I know but I like them and they do well in my soil.

            I like any we can get to grow. So, supermarket ones usually
            When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it.
            If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

                  Beetroot just isn't the same when it's not red, it's not just the colour, I find the taste isn't as good either. I usually have a globe variety - boltardy, Detroit and a cylindrical one for pickling.
