If you want to keep your beets in top fresh condition, cut the greens from the beets before sticking them in the fridge.
If left attached the greens will actually zap the moisture out of the beets and cause them to shrivel up. Go ahead and cut the stems and greens about an inch from the beet bulb itself, wash them and wrap them in a damp paper towel or in plastic wrap. They will last for a few days and you can use them however you like.
You can put your beets in a plastic bag all together and they will last up to 2 weeks.
