Grow with confidence. If you forget when you watered, water when dry, not when damp. You can do this. Grow classes begin 

BEET: Plant in full sun. Space seeds 1–2 inches apart in the row, and cover them lightly with loose soil. After planting water the seeds to settle the soil around the roots and remove any air pockets. You can also cover seeds with sand or mulch to protect them from the heat. Keep the soil moist as the seeds germinate, and remove excess seedlings once they've sprouted.

Water every 2 days.
