Have a whole tray of beetroot seedlings-what do i do now please ?

[fakeblonde]

They are all about an inch high.Do i need to thin them out and pot them into 3 inch pots individually or leave and put straight in the ground.
Cheers

if they're not getting too leggy I would leave them to grown a bit bigger before planting out to final position. Have they been hardened off for the outdoors too? I'm pretty new to gardening so may not be perfect advice but I wouldn't bother with 3inch pots as it's far too much faff and not worth disturbing the roots too many times.

beetroot are 'roots' so can resent being moved lots, so do what jw says and leave them to grow on a bit. if there are loads of them thin them out a bit so they are not crowded, but it's not a big issue. You are supposed to take them outdoors during the day to get acclimatised to the big wide world, and bring them back in at night, but frankly I've got a life and all my seedlings just go straight in the ground when the time comes. When you get this lot in, if you really like beetroot sow another row straight in the ground next to them to 'follow on'
