Spinach for many harvests, sow early or late, space for long lived plants

True spinach, not leaf beet, is as delicious in salad as it is cooked. You enjoy most harvests when it's sown very early, or in late summer. See the results of using both sowing dates, and tips on picking to give a longer harvest season.
Called "The prince of vegetables" in 12th century Arabia.

Thank you for posting this video specifically about spinach. I grow it every year, but feel the need to watch this to remind myself.

I'm learning so much from you Charles. I keep a note book while watching your videos writing down the tips you give us. I'm so glad I found your channel. You have given me so much confidence thank you

[jeffreywaddell]

Charles you are the garden goat! Really enjoy your videos.

I wonder why some of those spinach plants weren't growing as full and large as the others. But I appreciate that you showed us, because as someone new to gardening, I always expect the plants to grow perfectly and get discouraged when they don't. But now I understand that we don't have much control over everything and it's expected that not everything will be perfect! Thank you for sharing. I also watched your video about growing salad greens in the winter, and that motivated me to get back into gardening. I just transplanted some spinach leaves, swiss chard (bright lights), kale, and buttercrunch lettuce the other day and I am so impatient! You're an inspiration! I can't wait for harvest :)

Its my first year of growing and no dig for everything, just so glad you are here Charles guiding us through x

[denisebarreto]

I put my seeds 4 or 6 hrs in the water before planting! This week I planted. Corn, and spinach! Delicious salads, rice and "maminha"(Portuguese word for meat)

[brittcorley]

You have the most excellent, informative and thorough videos. I so appreciate your patience to wait through all the stages of plant development to compile all the clips into one single video. Very helpful!

[lloydlobo]

Very informative. The way you deliver the subject matter is just amazing. Thanks for sharing, Sir.

[johnpwright]

Such a soothing person. You have the ability to take me back to when I was a nipper watching ground force with my grandad x

[MsMinelly]

Thank you very much for all this valuble informasion 👏🤩

[zetalivsanns]

This man is a pro. Thx for all theses videos

[tedbastwock]

The smaller spinach plants are the ones that were transplanted more deeply; I believe it's an exact correlation, but I'd have to rewind to be sure. Thanks again for another great video!

So far you have taught me so much, although I have done gardening since I was 12, starting with growing tomatoes. Now at 66, I am finally learning how to do a REAL garden. This year is the first year I have done raised beds to begin with and the first year I have had success with lettuce, thanks to you. I have very little compost, of which I am working on, but I have bought, so far, about 8 yards of very fine compost called Black gold at a very reasonable price. NO WEEDS--I love it. Your knowledge is absolutely fantastic, and I sincerely hope that you keep sharing it. As I have told you in the past, I keep sharing your site and videos on another site, which I belong to. I hope your subscriptions keep going up. Thank you so much, Charles.
