Basic tips on how to grow Spinach
1. Plant spinach in a location with well-draining soil and partial to full sunlight.
2. Keep the soil consistently moist by watering regularly, particularly during dry periods.
3. Fertilise spinach with a balanced fertiliser in the early spring, just before new growth begins, and again in early summer.
4. Harvest spinach regularly by cutting the outer leaves and allowing the inner leaves to continue growing. This will encourage the plant to produce more leaves.
5. Protect spinach from pests, particularly slugs and snails, which can quickly destroy a crop. Consider using organic pest control methods such as diatomaceous earth or copper tape.
