Sowing: Prepare the seedbed outdoors using a hard tined rake, smoothening out the soil. Lightly sow and just barely cover the seeds with soil. Keep soil moist until germination is achieved. You can also start seeds indoors by sowing into seed starting trays using fresh new seed starting potting mix into clean seed starting trays. Just barely cover the seeds and keep well watered until they sprout. Harden off and transplant into the garden after about 3 weeks.

Easy to grow. I got 100% germination starting them inside. Baby leaves are so sweet, I eat them without any dressing. (Why ruin a good thing?) I'm not sure how mature leaves taste yet, nor can I comment on their production as full-sized plants, as I can't stop eating them as small leaves. (I guess I should grow more, right?)

We are in love with this spinach. I planted it in March and we have had a constant stream of more than we can eat for over 2 months. I have had to give it away and freeze some too. It is tender and mild in flavor. It's getting hot now (end of June) and has started to bolt, but it still tastes delicious. I'll plant a fall round in August too.

I planted this as a fall crop in late August. It grew very well and I had spinach until Halloween time. We did have a mild Autumn this year in Buffalo, NY.
