How to grow

Sow the seeds directly outdoors in prepared drills. The drills should be 20cm apart. Sprinkle the seeds thinly into the drill. Cover with soil and keep damp. After the seedlings establish, thin them out to leave a spacing of 15cm between plants. The leaves of the thinned plants can be eaten as the baby leaves. Perpetual Spinach baby leaves can be picked and eaten in as little as 4 weeks. When Perpetual Spinach is fully mature, pick the outdoors leaves as you need them, to keep the plants producing more leaves and stalks. Seed count is approximate.
