    Hi, This is my first Thread. Does anyone know how long Fodder beet seed will last in the ground before it germinates?? Sowed beet on the 10th April and some seeds still not emerged, Im blaming the cold weather, will they emerge when the weather gets warmer.
    Thanks.

    It is fairly hardy and slower than sugar beet. Is it sowed deep? Is it in lay? Next week is to be warm so keep a check for leather jackets. Get a manure bag and leave it on the ground with a stone on it and see what appears....Any hailstone damage?
