Tips Spinach

Soil preparation

  • Prepare a rich, well-drained, and cool soil.
  • The soil should be slightly acidic with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0.
  • Add compost or well-rotted manure to improve soil fertility.
  • Heavy soils should be lightened with sand or organic matter.
  • Avoid soils that are too alkaline or too dry.

Planting

  • Sow seeds about 2 cm deep.
  • Plant in a sunny or slightly shaded spot to avoid excessive heat.
  • Space rows 20 to 30 cm apart for good air circulation.
  • For later harvests, sow every two to three weeks.

Watering

  • Water regularly to keep the soil moist but not waterlogged.
  • Spinach requires plenty of water during growth.
  • Reduce watering once the leaves are mature to prevent diseases.
  • Use warm water to avoid shocking the roots.

Fertilizer

  • Apply a balanced fertilizer to encourage rapid growth.
  • An additional potassium boost can improve disease resistance.
  • Avoid excessive nitrogen fertilizer to prevent excessive leaf growth.

Harvesting

  • Harvest leaves as soon as they are large enough, leaving young shoots for the next crop.
  • Spinach is ready to harvest about 30 to 45 days after sowing.
  • Harvest early in the morning when the leaves are fresh and tender.
