Spinach

Planting

Propagation and planting

  • Spinach is propagated by seeds. Spinach prefers well drained soil with 6.5-7 PH level.
  • You can lime to adjust the PH level manually.
  • Prepare raised seed beds before you plant the seeds. Spinach Seeds should be planted at a depth of 1–2 cm (0.5–1 in) leaving 30 cm between rows.
  • Cover the seeds with a thin layer of soil
  • Spread over a thin layer of dry mulch
  • Water the bed thoroughly
  • When seedlings reach about 5 cm in height they should be thinned out to a spacing of 8–10 cm between plants.
