    Beets seeds were planted using the Board Method. Th seeds are planted then covered with a board.This method keeps the seeds damp and at a constant temperature. The board is removed immediately upon germination. Side stakes are used to re-position the board if accidentally moved. This method is used for most small seed planting in the outdoor garden.I found it improves germination rates considerably.
