I planted a pack of "Gourmet Blend" beets from Botanical Interest that includes traditional red beets, chiogga beets, and yellow beets (which have been very slow to mature). I saw a post on Skippy's Garden about not thinning beets, but instead just letting them push each other apart as they grow to make necessary room. I was skeptical because if it in fact works, then why is beet thinning even suggested? Anyway, it apparently works and I will never waste a baby beet again.
