Edible Gardening

Q&A – Why are my spinach, lettuce, and other cool-season crops flowering? Can I still eat them?



You are seeing these crops going to seed which is a natural thing that happens as the weather warms up in the spring. Master Gardener John Peterson says this often makes the plant taste bitter, but they are still edible. If a plant is bolting – or going to seed, he suggests tasting a leaf. If it still tastes good, you can harvest and eat it.
