Beetroot help

My OH has bought beetroot plug plants a couple of days ago and they are still in their containers in the greenhouse. The dilemma is we go away in a few days for 10 days so it best to plant them into the raised bed and hope they are OK.

Could anybody recommend the best way to keep them healthy whilst we are away? Will they be better in the raised bed or greenhouse?

Many thanks

Xx

    Where in the country are you , next week + looks completely dry and getting very much warmer, Greenhouse is going to get very hot.
    Not an easy question.
  • Just to report back, OH planted them outside in the raised bed and the beetroot have survived well whilst away and look perfectly healthy.

    Thanks for your help
