Enjoy the thick, dark green, crinkled spinach leaves either raw or cooked. Heavy yields and slow to bolt and go to seed. This cool-weather vegetable is easy to grow in rich, well-drained soil. Requires plenty of moisture. This nutritious spinach is packed with vitamins and minerals making it perfect for salads, cooking, and smoothies.
Plant near beans, cilantro (coriander), eggplant, oregano, peas, rosemary, strawberries. Peas and beans offer a natural form of protection for spinach, creating shade. Cilantro, oregano, and rosemary are believed to have insect-repelling properties.
Spinach does not transplant well and seeds can be sown directly in the garden in early Spring as soon as the soil can be worked. Soil temperature (not air temperature) should be between 4-20° C (40-68°F) . Space seeds and plant to the depth indicated below. Press seeds into the soil to ensure good contact and cover with 1.3 cm (1/2 in.) of soil. After planting, water seeds with a gentle mist or shower. It is critical to keep the soil consistently moist, but not soggy during germination. When your seedlings reach a height of a few centimetres (inches) and have developed 2 or 3 pairs of leaves, it is important to thin them out, according to the plant spacing indicated below. Do not allow the soil to become dry, as young plants have underdeveloped roots and can quickly dehydrate, particularly in windy conditions. Spinach grows quickly and more seeds can be succession planted every 2 weeks days until the temperature exceeds 23°C (75°F). Once the temperature rises, spinach tends to bolt. Planting can resume when the temperature turns cooler at the end of Summer and early Fall.

"Took a really long time to come up but I guess that's a spinach thing. But as a seedling it bolted already, despite growing it in the spring before summer. So I can't really enjoy it."
"Tape looks amazing - still too early to plant but looking forward to trying it"
"Instead of radishes I was mailed dill"
"Growing as it should be! Nice dark green leaves"
"Good tasting but tend to go to seed fast"
"Great deal. . excellent quality"
"Germinated easily, grew well. Thick and hardy, but a little smaller than I thought it would be, but turns out it was the perfect size to toss into salads!!"
"Not done testing with our hydroponic set-up yet but looks promising."
"I'm saving it for next season"
"The harvest was amazing, and nearly all my seeds germinated, much higher than I was expecting. Only regret is I didn't put them in early enough, and they went to seed too soon in the growing process, but given that they still did great."
