How To Grow
GROWER TIP: You can try soaking spinach seeds in water for 12-24 hours before planting to soften their tough outer coat and encourage quicker germination. As a cool-weather crop, spinach thrives when started indoors in early spring or fall with temperatures between 50-70°F, or sown directly outdoors in well-drained, fertile soil under similar cool conditions. To maintain healthy plants, keep the soil consistently moist, provide partial shade during warmer days, and harvest leaves regularly to promote continuous growth.
