Suggest you eat the leaves and forget the beetroot.

lack of nutrients, 98% of mine are red too, except the ones planted
where the pile of seaweed was last winter.


I am growing them in a container. In May I had lovely beetroots then came
the rains and problem since then. I have sowed new seeds and they came up
then went red too.
I think I'll give it up as a lost cause till next year.
